Crazy Royal

Post by jacobm4 »

I live in Nevada and visit my local casino often. I always play bonus video poker because of the large payout I can get. I was having a long dry spell from my last Royal Flush and really wasn't even trying but isn't it so true that Royals come when they are least expected? I had a King high hand. I was just going to dump the hand and draw five more cards but at the last minute I changed my mind and held the King of Clubs. I drew four more Clubs and thought "Cool...I got a Flush" but after looking at my winnings shooting up I looked closer and realized that I filled out a Royal Flush on a FOUR CARD DRAW! That is why I love playing poker! ;)

I've had a couple of four card draw royals, and they are definitely a huge surprise - congratulations on yours.

Why did you even consider throwing away the king?

Congratulations. Either on another game an incorrect hold choice. Phil and his wife also pull off miracle RFs on these. Maybe I should follow suit. I'm such a stuck in the mud stickler; can't think outside the box.

I've only had it on videopoker.com. Saw my neighbor do it once...

My last royal came on a 4 card draw while running free play on a crappy 9/5 JoB.
