Fact or fiction

[bundle]

Now some time ago I read somewhere about this taking place on a poker site. Apparently there was a hand that took place at a $10/20 cash table. After all the cards where out, the board showed a royal flush…  so with 3 players in the pot it is going to split 3 ways.

Now when the last card came off the pack, one guy goes all in for about $900 or so, followed by idiot in the chat box, and the other two guys called..best 5 cards right.

Well the guy that pushed was holding 8 9 hearts giving him a 7 card royal flush and took down the pot….

Now  I don’t know if this is a fact or fiction. So does anyone know the rule on this..i assume this must be BS as we play the best five cards….?

Never heard that one.

If it did happen, then its wrong!! But some online software DOES have bugs in, so it may be true?!?

The 8-9 can't win.

I heard this story too.

Perhaps just a glitch in the software.

I might make a complaint if I was one of the other guys. However, if it means going through Party Poker customer service, then I'd just give it up.
