Re: First royal!
What a great video. Congratulations! I noticed it was at Caesars - our favorite place back in the days when we could go to Vegas (pre-kids).

Congrats, you'll never forget the first one.
And, since we all know that the final card isn't selected until you actually press the draw button it turns out you probably wouldn't have hit the RF if you had not taped it. As for your feeling, it kind of brings to mind the Oracle in "The Matrix" ....

Congratulations on your first royal. It was, however, 8/5 DDB --- a game that returns less than 97% when played well. Learn to pay attention to how much you're receiving for full house and flush and insist on only playing the good games and your net results will improve. You won't hit royals any more or less frequently, but you'll lose far less between royals. Even for recreational players, losing less so you can stay in the game longer should be a priority. There are those here who believe my posts amount to throwing cold water on a happy moment. Perhaps they're right. But I believe I am throwing a lifeline to players who'd like to play more but can't figure out how to make their money last longer. This post tells you how to do that. Bob

Thanks for the replies and i do understand about pay tables and 95 percent of my play for the week was on 9/6 ddb. Just happened to pick this machine at the right time and thought it was cool.

Congrats, Smokin'. I have taken a few pics of winning hands, but never a video. I guess I just don't get that 'feeling'. I am posting this from a Southwest flight as I return from Vegas, having stayed and played @ Caesars this past week also. It was a good gaming trip for me - I hope you as well.
