Wow, I've never got one but if i did I would expect banners and stars and everything. They just called it a "straight flush"?

why are you shocked you got one in omaha before holdem? in Omaha you get more cards and more card combos so its more likely you will get one in omaha first.

Oh I see I thought it was because you thought it was more likely in holdem to get a royal compared to omaha, thats cool then.

The chances in Omaha aren't as high as you might think. First, you still may only get 2 of the suited cards needed, so getting a third makes it impossible. 2nd, other players also have 4 cards so the chances are greater that they have one of the necessary cards. Nice hand though. I've had a few A-5 flushes, arguably the absolute best hand in that game, but if you catch the royal with the A in your hand that is even better.

do they pay off the high hand jackpot if you are in a sng? that would be a nice little bonus.

congrats.

No, I'm fairly certain they only pay off the ring games. What pissed me off was about a month ago I hit q to 8, and then someone beat me. Would have been worth $60. At SnGos, you can't even check what the high hand if memory serves me correctly.

Funny thing is, I've been beaten in omaha with a A-5 flush by the 3-7 flush.
