How many royals have you hit in real life?

Post by jayman4206 »

Just wondering how many royal flushes you guys have hit in the actual casinos.

I kept count up to 28, estimating I've hit around 35 total.

I do not have a precise lifetime count. Based on the records I do have for the casinos where the bulk of my play has been, I would guess somewhere in the 175 to 200 range.

Up until the last few years one about every 40k hands which is average. However, the last few years, only about 6 in 2 million hands. Unbelievable.

Six. Hoping it will be seven or more in Tunica this weekend!

It's much easier to win powerball on a single ticket than this occurring on a fair VP machine...just sayin'.

15 or so, but I really only count 2 as they were on single hand Game King - one for quarters and one for dollars, both progressives.

The rest were on multihand or Dream card.

Why would you not count royals that you may have had when playing multi-hand? I can half understand the logic of not counting DreamCard royals - to a point. I have hit many, many royals on DreamCard but You're losing me on not counting multi-hand royals?

I have hit many, many royals on DreamCard but You're losing me on not counting multi-hand royals?I don't count them myself because it pays next to nothing.  A Royal,to me is special, if it pays $1,000 or so. Its the payout I consider special, not the hand itself. A single $40 payout on a $5 penny 100 play just doesn't cut it for me.    Getting dealt 4OAK or a Straight Flush on the bottom hand of a 100 play kicks ass. Everybody's different. I'l happily take a penny RF. I'm just not going to celebrate it, same as I don't celebrate  a $37.50  Wild Royal.
