Why can we only see the 4,000 games on leaderboard? We used to be able to click on all games.

I like the new format so if you loose your internet connection you can get back in where you got cut off. It does however seem to stutter regularly.
I have played the monthly contest every month, every day of the month, for about 15 months. In that time I have had one royal flush.
The current leader has had four this month. Plus many many sessions over 1,000, I do not think you rig the games, you would have no real reason to for the little money that is at stake. But does he have a way to manipulate the cards? A back door into your site?
You have to admit that 4 royals in 27 days is way beyond the math odds.
What happened to the chat feature? Used to like chatting with fellow gold members
I have played for a long time and think I play pretty good, but in 27 days I am almost 25,000 credits behind the leaderINDEED I DID MEAN 25,000 AND HAVE CORRECTED IT ABOVE. THE LEADER JUST KEEPS HAVING A GOOD SESSION ALMOST EVERY TIME WHILE I HAVE HAD A LOT OF  SESSIONS UNDER 300 THIS MONTH

Fairway I mentioned everything you said in your post to Webman today. I believe you meant 25,000 credits behind the leader cuz 2500 would put you in the top ten for the month.

I calculate the odds of hitting 4 or more royals to be about 0.000413 (about 4 in 10,000 people)With 3,000 people playing, I don't think the odds are as low as you think.I may have calculated wrong. If someone wants to beat that, please share your calculations.Note that this would mean 9,996 people out of 10,000 did not hit 4 royals. So you are in good company.

I don't know what the odds are, but this is my first month playing here, and I've had 2 royals. I do like the single hand much better than any of the multi hands because at least we have a chance to compete by holding the right cards.
