Most Royals in 24 Hours?

Post by FloridaPhil »

Back in 2008, I had the crazy luck to hit 4 Royals in 24 hours.  I don't think that will ever happen to me again in my lifetime.  I talked with a slot host who said she saw someone hit 7 in one afternoon.  Anyone come close to that?

I would really like to hit seven royals in one day. Four has been my limit, a few times and I was thrilled! Okay, a couple of those involved dealt triple play royals at Palms, in different years.

If yours and the other person's were on single hand machines then you both will never see it again. If either of you experienced the royals on multi hand machines then its not that uncommon i would think. My personal best is one in 6 months :)

My Royals came on single line machines at the Beau Rivage.  I was playing JB $1s on a 2 day trip to Biloxi. I only took about $3,000 with me for the whole trip.  Hit the first one within 30 minutes.  Got the next one about 45 minutes later.  Hit two more at the Capri the next morning.   I usually hit about 2-3 a year, but never in a row like that.   Sure wish I could do it again, but I guess it was just my time....  I have the W2Gs framed on my wall.  I take them down and look at them once in a while.

I've had two in one day many times but never got a third one. My wife has done 3 in a day once and the odd part was she held AKQ in hearts for all three. Also, they were all on different machines.

I've seem to remember hitting six in an hour on a single line game.I've also hit four sets of deuces in 6 hands once on a single line progressive in Reno. I kept playing off the JP and getting another one. The floor people never got 5 feet.My memory isn't very good when it comes to Jackpots. I remember high loses far better. Funny I was just posting about this on vpFREE.~FK

I don't think I have ever had more than 1 in single session and I play alot and have had for many years and each session is 6-10+ hours.  I've only hit AWAK 2x on a handfull of occasions and maybe once 3x.  Best I can muster is a Royal in 3 straight seperate trips. Or I once had 3 machines whistling at the same time.  Hit a Progessive Royal on DDB jumped the machine on the left and hit Super Aces, then jumped to the machine to left and hit 3333A on TDB.  Right at $10k all before the first verification could be done.

I am the opposite, guess that is why I keep going back.   Lately I am either really hot or ice cold.  No coming home with a few hundred up or down.

I play two machines very fast and have been playing 6+ hours a day for 23 years. I'm sure what I've experienced is just normal for anybody with similar play volume.~FK

 You say this expecting that someone will believe you? I'm sure you just lost credibility with more than just me. Just when I was beginning to look up to you and starting to think there was hope in what you were saying by playing those machines at the M, I have to read this. Please Frank. Why?  Were those 6 royals in one hour on the machine your left hand was working, or right? I once got a pair of high cards in 5 outta 6 hands.
