I just searched on "Royal Flush," because I know a number of them have been posted, but I guess I can't copy/paste the search results, so I guess you'll have to search for yourself.

But yes, quite a few people here have had them and posted them, myself included.

the amount of hands everyone plays on here I dont think there is anyone who hasnt at least been at a table where someone didnt get one.

If by "everyone," you mean all 900+ of the registered users here, I think you are way, way off. If you mean the "regulars," I think it's safe to say that most people have at least seen a Royal Flush, but still probably not everyone.

Boobie Lover · #5 12-22-05, 01:58 PM

Seen around 5 or so. Never had one.

BrianSwa · #6 12-22-05, 02:12 PM

wasnt too clear was I? by everyone and by me saying the amount of hands we see I meant the regulars that play that amount of hands. Seeing as most of us play 3-4 tables at a time and see so many hands per hour I thought it was safe to say most regulars have at least seen one.

Seen only 1 (not mine) and it was about a week ago.

Zybomb · #8 12-22-05, 02:49 PM

never had one... ive seen 2

1 was against me when I flopped top two pair, reraised him all in (cash game) and he called on a royal draw... hit the normal flush on the turn THEN THE ROYAL ON THE RIVER.... i wasnt too happy

jaeh00d · #9 12-22-05, 04:33 PM

Have ever had one, flopped 4 parts to it twice but never got the last piece. I've been at the casino when someone has gotten them a couple of times.

The royal flush of spades jackpot at the casino here is over 50,000 it hasnt been won in weeks. I'm gonna go play there in a bit.

I had 3 of the 4 Royals that I had on the Party Sites.
I haven't even looked at my other sites Databases though.

greenbuckets · #11 12-22-05, 05:27 PM

I've seen two online and actually had one in a casino. I hit it on the turn but the other two guys in the hand obviously had nothing because when I bet a lousy $4 on the river, everyone folded. I think I won $6 on that hand. Yippee.

Robbr25 · #12 12-22-05, 05:30 PM

My first real money Royal Flush was on PartyPoker.
My first real money str8 flush (K-9)(SB) happened on the 2nd hand of $2/$4(I think) Limit Hold'em at the Tropicana in AC. It was my first time sitting down at a poker table in a casino. What happened on the first hand(BB) you ask?? Full House. Took my $69 and left to meet up with friends after the str8 flush.

Cant say I have, but I can say my ace high flush got beeten yesterday by a jack high straight flush. I hope to see one eventually.

boatracer · #14 12-22-05, 07:52 PM

I have gotten 1 since I started playing. I was holding 10 Q hearts and the flop came J K A of hearts. I checked tring to let someone bet, nobody did and when I bet 200 ev1 folded. Didnt make any money. It was like they knew I had it.

I haven't seen 1 since

boatracer · #15 12-22-05, 07:53 PM

By the way thanks for the info TP in the PM

Akverno · #16 12-23-05, 06:58 AM

I've seen two in person, one at a home game and the guy didn't win a whole lot, the other at the hard rock in ft. lauderdale. I've seen one in online stud, and two in hold em. I've gotten a few straight flushes in my life, one to the king at the dog track in west palm, and I lost low end to the high end against my brother in a home game. Frustrating hand.

Edit: Fixed an idiotic typo.

Akverno · #17 12-23-05, 07:27 AM

Speaking of straight flushes, i just got one in a tournament to knock someone out. Well at least cripple them down to 45 chips.

Talking Poker · #18 12-23-05, 12:33 PM

Rumor has it that bdawg once took down a $3 pot with a Royal Flush. LOL....

Zybomb · #19 12-23-05, 12:36 PM

good value bet im sure....

Favre[4] · #20 12-23-05, 12:48 PM

ive had 2 straight flushs but nvr a royal flush

MAYHEM45 · #21 12-23-05, 12:54 PM

I've had two royal's myself and seen about 5-6 more.

Favre[4] · #22 12-23-05, 12:58 PM

the weird thing about my straight flushes is i got both within an hour

holdemstewart · #23 12-23-05, 01:43 PM

Ive seen 4 and two of them were me. My first time ever seing a royal flush is when I floped it in a home game. I went all in and he called with two pair on the flop.

Talking Poker · #24 12-23-05, 01:53 PM

Wow... what a horrible play! If there was ever a time to slowplay, I'd say flopping a Royal Flush would be that time! LOL..... Why in the world did you bet there???

jaeh00d · #25 12-23-05, 02:48 PM

Well here goes the update from the casino last night.

I had my flirt with over 51,000 grand last night. I was on the big blind and had King of spades and a deuce of clubs. You better believe flop came A,J, 10 all of spades. So I had the King and a guy on the other side of the table had the queen. Big deal but close enough to make you say damn.

Turns out around 830 last night when I was there playing a guy in the tabe right next to me got it on the river. You just knew what it was when you heard the yells and screams.

He had QJ of spades, Flop came AK of spdes with some other useless card and he then got the 10 of spades on the river.

Yesterday was his day.... he deserves it though he really looked like a guy that needed the money. ( no pun intended )

So it goes back down to 3000
