I remember my first (and my only).

I didn't even realize it until it appeared in the chat window and everyone started going nuts. Reason was I flopped a straight and didn't notice when it royaled up on the river.

A [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Flop was T [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

So of course I was pumping ht pot the whole time.

Turn was a rag

I was still betting my straight (hahah) and noticed the box said royal flush and I wigged.

I wonder what feels better your first Royal or your first hole in one? Sadly I have had neither!!!!1

First hole in one is far better, as it is completely due to your skill, not some random shuffle of cards.

However, I had my second royal flush ever last night, after about 150,000 online hands, and it felt damn good, especially when I beat a full house and another flush for mucho action.

I just popped one last night. AKd flopped a straight 10d Qd Js, turned a Jc, rivered a Jd. "villian had AJ. playing .50/1 6-max. On party would have got like a gagillion dollars, on absolute? 1 XL Absolute poker t-shirt. WooHoo.

Congrats!

I waited two years for my first royal. I had been playing full ring and just moved to 6 max this week. First day at 6 max I got a royal flush [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Just yesterday (only 5 days later) I got my second one [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Unbelievable. Both of them were on Eurobet so I didn't get anything for them. Not even a shirt....

Lozing

I've been playing for 3 years almost every day, and have never been given a Royal Flush. Boooooo.

I've had way more than my fair share. My 14th was last week, and I would have rivered one this week, had I not folded the flop. Had 2 within 2 days as well. Just ridicurous.

I believe a royal comes in about once every 200,000 hands or something, and I think I'm pushing only 600,000 hands lifetime.

I never win any big pots when I hit, since I normally have all the cards worth having anyway.

Now here's a question...if you were playing this on a Party BBJ table, I know the rule is that both players must use both their hole cards to make their hand, othewise no go for the jackpot. Does the fact that he technically uses both to make "quad jacks with ace kicker" count? I don't think Party would allow it.

This would count.

I remember my first royal. I've had a few since. It was on Paradise, either 0.50/1.00 or 1/2. I misplayed it because I didn't realize it was a royal. I knew I had an ace high flush, but the board paired on the river. I bet the river, another player raised and I just called because I though my flush might be beat by a full house. My opponent had a full house, but the pot went to me. I thought wtf? and then looked ad the chat window where it said I had a royal flush. Doh!

sometimes not. I once hit a terrible shot in the teeth at a par 3 that bounced low and off to the right. The ball then hit a rock, bounced back on the fairway, rolled down a hill onto the green creeping up to the hole. It looked like it was about to go in but stopped literally on the lip. Thank God! I wouldn't want my one and only hole in one to have been with that shot!

Lets be realistic. On party you would have only got one half of a gagillion.

My first royal I wasn't so happy. I had A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], and the board was:

K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]

I was playing a freezeout with my bro in law, and I was just learning so of course I slowplayed it like Mike McDermot, and he checked behind the whole way postflop.

I've had about 5 since, and each time it's just like 'meh'

The problem is, if the board isn't paired the best your opponent can have is the third nuts with a 9-high flush. I never seem to win much.

I've had two royals, both on Party.

One was at a high hand jackpot table and scored me 2k.

Pretty lucky considering I've played about 40,000 ring game hands and only 400 have been at the jackpot tables.

LOL.. Just did it too!

I once played in a shotgun start golf tourney with a guy who had never played. He got a hole in one on the first 130 yard par 3. He may as well have kicked the ball because it worm-burnered down the fairway and up onto the green to plop into the cup. I agree, pure skill.

PokerCat69 09-28-2005 10:17 PM

Re: just popped my cherry!
 
I've had 2 royals before. For me straight flushes are better money makers. You have the guy with his A/K(possibly Queen) high flush betting like mad.

Adam22 09-29-2005 01:02 AM

Re: just popped my cherry!
 
ive had 2, once on 3/6 on poker room, once on betonbet on 5/10. 800 bucks aint bad. the second one i wouldnt have gotten unless i called QTs in the SB with like 4 limpers. weird how i would have folded if one of them raises and missed out on it.
