Btw does anyone remember the odds of getting a Royal Flush? I'm playing for half a year now and have yet to hit any straight flush.
In my first year playing HE online I got only 2 royals. The first used one card from my hand, the second used both cards from my hand. The crazy thing was, both hapenned in the same night, 45 minutes apart, while 4 tabling 3/6 on party. The guy I beat up with the first royal saw me get the second one as he was at that table too (had been hunting the top pot tables like me) so seeing two royals for one guy in an hour he accused me of cheating and went on tilt. Sent an email to CS too lol. Guess I can't blame the guy
Anyway, in that first year I only hit those two royals, and only one of those used both my hole cards. ... | | Read Entire Entry |

I think they did away with the Royal Flush Bonus. I won $1,000 for my Royal Flush on PokerRoom and it was in my account within minutes. I wrote the hand number down and was going to contact them. Before I could contact them I received a popup email congratulating me and letting me know the $1,000 was already in my account.
Thank you,
Jim Kuhn

The question is, do I get anything for flopping a royal straight flush???
I only won a $40 pot, but that was the first time in my life!!!
Rigged for rake
Congrats and watch out when they flip the doom switch on you.
