Dealt Royal Flush

Post by mogee »

What are the odds of getting a dealt royal flush? My husband and I have played video poker since 1989 and yesterday he got a dealt royal for the first time for either of us while playing 25 cent TDB.

Congrats!

A dealt royal is expected to happen 1 in 649,740 deals on average. If you play at 400 hands per hour, then that is expected to happen once every 1624 hours on average.

Congratulations. Met a guy in his sixties who said he has been dealt three, so anything is possible.

Congratulations to your husband. Dealt Royals are always memorable. Just wait until one of you gets a dealt multi-hand and it will bring multiple smiles to your faces.
