I dont get many joker poker plays, but sometimes you get somewhat lucky on the draw.

Ancient history now, but a couple of years ago, I held a lone Joker and tossed the junk cards. Probably made a math mistake by not holding an 8 with it. Anyway, that one time I came back with 5 of a kind.

Yes Olds , those seem to be the most fun . I recall at mohegan playing job holding a jack of spades and getting the other 4 pieces to the royal ! seems like hundreds of years ago !!

Had a hand the other day on triple play JoB where I missed a double inside straight flush draw and redrew 5 new cards only to catch quad 3's on the second hand.

The only time I tossed 5 cards and drew a royal was at my one and only trip to the Tampa hard Rock in spring of 2019 on a spring training trip.

Have had my share of redraw royals over the years. What I am way behind on now are the dealt ones. I am not complaining because I have caught Royals recently, but have now gone about I think 7 million hands without one. Had a redraw a couple of months ago. Once in awhile, I play quarter Double Down Stud Deuces wild. Last week a regular playing the same machine 2 spaces over from me told me he caught 2 of them so far this year. He plays 25 quarters at a time, so each one was good for 25 k. Unfortunately, this is only a 97 percent game. 😬
