Was once dealt 4 Kings back to back on $1.00 All Americans at Caesars AC years ago.I swear they were in the same order of suits as well. Stared at the machine for a few minutes thinking WTF was that.

As far as I know, I haven't done this. But I haven't played enough hands to expect to either. It's a bit more unlikely than a dealt Royal, which I somehow luckily got.

I remember that vman. Before I get too old to type here, I want to see you hit another one. By the way best of luck Monday if you do go to play. How about this......every time the bartender brings you another beer, try one pot shot of double what ever your bet is at that moment. You just never know and that first sip will taste that much better.

I forgot one more. When Foxwoods first opened well over 25 years ago, I was playing 5 dollar Blackjack. The dealer had Blackjack 11 out of 13 hands. I have never sat at a Blackjack table since. If I remember, I had 20 for at least half of those deals. Another time I posted about the homeless lady at the old Playboy club in AC that threw the dollar down at the crap table on number 12 and either 4 or 5 I can't remember now straight number 12s were rolled. She let the first 2 ride then cashed in.

I've had 3 straight full houses a few times. Once, the first 2 were dealt FH's. Today I was dealt quads 4 times and drew to 3 others within 25 minutes on single line. I've had dealt quads back to back once. Fastest 2 royals were 9 hands apart.
Let me add, this was on JoB and not any game with wild cards.

In all my royals, never hit a sequential one yet. What a rare hand indeed. There is a dollar single line sequential royal progressive machine at the casino I play it. Would of payed you over $100,000 dollars. Normally a $4,000 royal. Like I said, a very rare hand.
Cheers

Every time i play this game i go in thinking, after ten years, i must have seen it all. WRONG! Streaks of horsepucky cards until you want to cry ENOUGH!!! Followed shortly by four quads in ten minutes, capped off ten minutes later by a $20K ROYAL. This game will tend to drive you nuts (in my case a short drive).

He will never see that again in his lifetime. Just goes to show you never know what will be dealt. Speaking of pickem, I have never had a royal and I have played many many hours.
