It's the luck of the draw, the game, the random number generator & its seed. The people at the top of the games were all DEALT something big. And, many of those people would never had qualified in a contest if they hadn't hit a big one.  You can use math to help better your odds but the math doesn't fully account for the secret seed which affects the randomness. If these games are exactly like in the NV casinos, there should be a guaranteed payout. But, the payouts are also based on a group of machines. So, if there's a group of 6 machines with a payout of 87%, and, someone hits a royal, all those machines are "tightened" up to bring the total payout down to the percentage.  The casinos aren't in business to Give money away...  lol

This is not and never will be casino. I do not see where your logic makes any sense here.

   You are mistaken. Very, very mistaken. I strongly suggest you refrain from making posts about things you are clueless about. Educate yourself on how video poker machines payoff, then come back and laugh at how dumb your post were.

One royal tomorrow and I could be top ten. Maybe the guy billryan quoted can take a dive throwing away every card every hand.

I went 18 months. Then one in August, and one in October.

In 15 days it will be another year since my last royal in the monthly. I guess another 14 months to go until my next one.
