While that guys back to back royals are impressive, I did manage to hit a smallshot earlier in the day.

And in the exact same order. The probability of that happening must be off the charts.

I had nearly the same thing happen last year when holding 555 and drawing the same 5,4 back to back for quads. Only it didn't happen in the same order.olds442jetaway wrote: ↑Sun Nov 14, 2021 9:03 pmAnd in the exact same order. The probability of that happening must be off the charts.

Nice longshot. Question though: you aren't playing for the multiplier? What does not playing for the multiplier do with payback percentages?

Before I hit this, I dumped $600 in the machine next to it. The first 3 not playing for the multiplier and the 2nd 3 playing for it. The 2nd 3 went in about 3 minutes. After that I went and hit a slot play then came back. This royal happened after about 3 hands.
There's no rhyme or reason why I sometimes do or don't play for the multiplier. Although the payback is better with the multiplier, the variance goes up also. Notice on this one I got 2 weeks ago, I was playing for the multiplier.

De-ja-vu
Hold a lone Q and hit a royal on the 10th hand.
