lol...that's pretty nutty.

Mathematically speaking, it's similar to filling in 5 straight flushes in that spot (too bad it wasn't that!)

Filling in 5 straight flushes or more out 10 would be:
1 in 995,164

But it would be fair to say you probably make this post if you make any 5 flushes or straights with the identical card, so that gives you 12 different cards to use for this making this more like a 1 in 82,930 occurrence.

I am not much of a statistician, but seeing this live 2 days ago in Atlantic City made me think of a racino, not a "real" casino.  I've been seeing quite a bit of strange draws lately in AC, some  that really make me go hm.....  am I playing VP at a casino  or VLT at a racino? Hard to tell them apart lately

You're supposed to be playing at a casino where random, equally likely cards are being spit out. But sometimes random cards make patterns too...

I would of been happy with the 5 flushes and 1 straight, I've been bricking those lately. LOL, but it does make one wonder especially at the world famous Borgata.

Someone else brought this up a while back and now I notice the same thing when playing triple play (which is rare) but the last card on 4 draw card hands does always appear to be the same multiple times.

My last 6 shots at a Royal were all in spades. I needed a 10 in 4 of them. All 6 draws produced black cards in the draw and on top on that they all were eights and nines. Really makes you wonder about the new RNGs. I have been keeping track of premium wins. Soooooo many more hits are with one or two units bet. Anytime my bets progress up into the teens meaning 13-19 quarters bet which happens often using a Martingale clone system, I only hit nothing or small stuff. No W-2gs issued since October of last year. Total play is down somewhat from the last couple of years, but still averaging 20k hands a week. So that is 8 plus months at 20k hands a week without even 1 W-2G. Nobody is going to be able to convince me that these newer chips are completely random. Somehow and don't ask me how, almost every session has been in an up mode at some point. Of course I do not quit. The lure of the premium hands is just too tough to not try for them.
