Default I\'m on a Straight Flush Rush

Up until a few days ago, I had never had a straight flush except for 2 royals that I hit ages ago.

Over the last 3 days I have whored reloads at Intertops (700 hands), PokerNow (500 hands), and Party (1400 hands). Also, I have played off some of my bonus dollars at Absolute (just over 500 hands).

I hit a straight flush at Intertops, one at PokerNow, TWO at Party, and just hit another one at Absolute. That's 5 straight flushes over the course of just over 3100 hands.

That's GOTTA be rare. What are the odds?

Rare, but is it rare enough!!

For 3100 hands, assuming all played to the river....
exactly 5 str/flush = 0.002636119 = 1 in 379
5 or more = 0.003124828 = 1 in 320
