Is this roughly correct?

Post by olds442jetaway »

Last night, while playing 98.91 Deuces Wild, I was dealt back to back Wild Royals. Is the probability of that happening roughly 1 in 273,529? I can’t remember that happening in my play before.

I remember I misunderstood a similar comment in another thread.

Your number is correct for consecutive wild royals AFTER the draw. Base frequency is 524, and squared would be 274k.

But were they both DEALT to you? Before the draw? Dealt frequency is 5414.5. Square is 29.3m -- once in a lifetime.

Congratulations on your rare deals. More importantly, was it a winning session?
