Title: First Ever Royal Flush!!! Post by: jjandellis on April 05, 2007, 01:24:32 AM Chuffed to bits. This is not really a gloating post about my performance, but just highlights how pleased I was with my first ever RF.
Been getting a bit run down lately and was feeling a bit tired. Had a bit of food and perked up immensely. So much so, that at the VERY last minute I jumped in the car and headed for the casino. Got into a 25 quid freezeout at the last minute. There were only 30 odd runners. Was very happy with my play, but got sucked out on a few times. The bubble was on 8th and just before the final table I was sucked out on again, leaving me with an M of 2! I pushed and more than doubled up. Onto the final table and had an M of 5ish. Got Ahrt Qh first hand and instantly pushed from the button. Ended up tripling up. Soon after I had a couple more double ups and found myself as chip leader. Long story short. I knocked every single final table player out. The other 8 players gone in an hour and 5 minutes. Now I was really happy with that, but realise the calibre of players was not the best (understatement?). But what really capped the final table, was facing an all in by a short stack that I had covered by about 20/1. I looked down to see Ac Tc. Raised them up, as I fancied them to myself. Cards turned over and flop comes rage Kc Qc. Turns a rag and rivers a Jc. Short stack thinks his 2 pair is good, until pointed out that he's facing a ROYAL FLUSH! Beautiful. Never had one before. Made my night :-) ;cupcake; ;yippee; Title: Re: First Ever Royal Flush!!! Post by: SuffolkPunch on April 05, 2007, 09:20:50 AM nice one

Title: Re: First Ever Royal Flush!!! Post by: KingPoker on April 20, 2007, 12:33:17 AM They're like bl**dy buses these Royal Flushes!!! First one came along two weeks ago (seems like yesterday) and now I just hit another!!!!! :-) Whats the exact odds of hitting RF??? With 5 cards: 20/52 * 4/51 * 3/50 * 2/49 * 1/48 = 649,739/1 Divide by 21 for 7 cards. |
