Personal experience . I had Two RFs 6 hands apart on a .25 Single Line game at the ACHILTON last year playing DDB.  That cleared that  bank  of machines out.

No, but I have had 2- 5OAKs playing AC Joker within 10 hands. They return 4000 just like a Royal on other games.

I believe the original poster was talking about royal flushes.

So far there have been 15,693,600 hands played in the contest. If anyone can provide a reasonable explanation as to why two royal flushes should never have happened within the same 100 hand session, I will be glad to have the programmers look further into the randomness of the software. The simple truth is that even though it can seem so hard to get even one royal flush (believe me I understand this from personal experience), two of them can and does happen with this many players playing so many hands. You would find similar results in the casino looking at as many players. And the 8,000 players who it didn't happen to would be wondering what the one person who was so lucky did to make it happen. Some would think they possibly cheated, others would ask what they had for breakfast or what color socks they were wearing. Any time there are long odds, you will have suspicions and superstitions, I suppose.
