aaaa lucky! I don't think that i've ever gotten one, and playing online, i've only seen one. How big was the pot?

it was a 5-10c ting game i think there was 1.50 at the end..mainly because i wanted the hand to finish.

Very nice hand indeed my friend! Just wish it was in a bigger game for you. I had a few here and there in my lifetime. Live game hit on one is very exciting when you can get a payoff. I've had a few online, but only got one to pay off, and it wasn't much. Hope you see more of em, and thanks for sharing! Smile

Lucky bastardo! I've only had two Royal Flushes in my lifetime, and both were coincedentally about a week apart on FTP. Both were suited hearts, and while beggars can't be chooses, I'm still waiting for a Royal Flush of Spades!

I have never seen a Royal Flush on-line or live till about 1 month ago when I was watching the 2008 WSOP on TV and the Royal Flush was up against quad Aces who just happened to be all-in. I was told that 2 Royals actually hit during that tourney , but haven't seen the other one yet.

OH YEA!!!!!!!! Almost forgot CONGRATS on hitting yours.

Hogster - If there was another one, it wasn't televised. I've watched every episode and there's only one.

There was, however, a royal flush at the 2007 main event too.

Nice Job on your royal flush, can't wait til I hit my royal flush and hopes it's big too!!!!

Hey there, I got that on Betfred (on the iPoker network). Every year on different sites Talksport (UK sports radio) have freerolls where u can win chipsets + cash + seats to finals etc I ended up knocking out a bounty for 1xchipset and finished 3rd for a few $. Don't think they've had one on a US friendly site yet tho Sad

I look forward to the day the US law is changed so we can lock horns on all sites once more.

Play enough tourneys and don't play RFlush draws too aggro if you want to land one is my advice or everyone will fold anyway Mad

Just 1 time since i've been playing poker that lucked into a royal flush and it was a preflop all -in.....so i never really had the oppurtunity to play the hand.Nothing better than to play the hand and watch your opponent hang themselves with no possiblity of defeat What a Face
