I got a handful of royals within my first 10k hands. Poor you.

I've played ~150,000 and I still don't have a royal. Might even be way more than that, since that doesn't count the hands I played on the Boss network, Paradise, FTP and Pacific.

I've had 3, all in 2004. One in the Sahara in Vegas, and the other two in the same week on Party.

Hmmm, I just checked and it seems all 3 of mine were in tournaments on UB early on in my poker life. That's a little odd.

Got my first royal around 1900 hands.

Since then I've played another 17,000 tourney hands, 61,000 ring game hands on many different sites and have yet to see a 4th. I'm also pretty shocked to see that I've only got 2 straight flushes on record for tournaments. 3 royals and only 2 straight flushes? Weird...

I've got 8 straight flushes recorded for ring games, though I only saw the flop and showdown on 3 of them.
