Hit my first ever Royal last night....on Pick'Em no less.  My understanding is that's rather rare indeed.

Congratulations on your first Royal!    I hope that you were able to get a picture of it for posterity.

Hoochie Mama! Congratulations!
 
I hope to join you in that club before too long here. My next trip will be in June sometime!

Very rare.  You would expect to see 8 royals in Jacks or Better before hitting the first royal in Pick 'em with similar play and coin-in.

I am going to try to link a picture.  I nabbed one with my camera phone, and they gave me a Polaroid too with my wad of cash.

PS this was at the Mystique casino in Dubuque Iowa, not out in Vegas.

Wow, very nice and yup thats a rare one, I wonder the odds.  Weird though the pick'em I play is 100 for a FH, 600 for quads, 1200 for a SF and 10,000 for a Royal.  I've hit it a few times for quads but nothing better.

My understanding is Pick'Em that has a 10,000 royal is shorted farther down the pay table, since the royal contributes so little to the total return of this game.  I imagine someone with more advanced knowledge will weigh in.
