    I started playing Poker a couple years ago, Online (for fun) and Live and I have probably played thousands of hands and I have never gotten a Royal Flush in any hand whatsoever, I have never even played in a hand where someone else at the table had a Royal Flush. And I have only ever had 1 Straight Flush, and seen 2 others where someone else at the table got one. How friggin rare are these hands? Has anyone else ever gotten one?

    I got a Royal Flush in a Borgata tourney 3 months ago.  The only other Royal I've had is 8 years ago playing Stud at the Taj.

    Sorry for the double, I'm having trouble with that lately.  As for the Royals they are extremely rare.  I think I've only seen 1 royal other than mine in the last 10 years.

    It depends upon the game.  They are going to much rarer, obviously, in 5-card stud than in 7-card stud.

    There are dozens of websites that will give you exact percentages.  All you have to do is Google "royal flush odds" or something similar.

    Here's one that might help:

    I have had one Royal and have seen 4 others in about 5 years of play.  I have never seen anyone win a LARGE pot with their royal but have seen a few large pots with straight flushes.

    i've gotten 1. and i have played A LOT over the last 4 years
     
    q 10 diamonds
     
    flop came AdJd rag
     
    Kd on turn
     
    some guy ahd pocket kings and fucking got all pissed bceause i raised him on the turn. yes i know i coulda slow played longer but there were like 4 people in the pot already and the game was super aggressive so i figured no one would put me on anything too strong.
     
    he started bitching about how i could fuck up a jackpot doin that... yeah right he was thinking about winning that hand first and foremost... though the cased K on the river woulda been SO SWEET

    Once last July at the Hard Rock in Lauderdale. $50 max at a $10 machine. Paid $11,000. I'm going to have to pay taxes on it in a couple months.

    Same $10 machine, $50 max play...would hit 4 of a kind on a semi regular basis ($2500). Remember though. That's from playing a long time, have enough bank to sit on a machine till it cycles bad and good runs, finally get you a four of a kind......then move on to the next machine. As far as my little tracking card goes, it appeared like I was mister wealthy, when in fact, I never took more than $3000-$4000 with me or withdrew that much in any given outing.

    Comped out the ass.

    Video poker guys know what I'm talking about.

    Once again, not bragging, I was a little stunned. First time for the Royal Straight Flush after being close as shit so many times in so many places. actually. The pit guys were more stunned that I just took the $11 Gs in cash. They asked me if I wanted someone to walk me out to the car, and I said why??

    Just my little story. We all have 'em. Well , most of us are lucky to have some.

    I'm only 20 and I can say I have gotten more than I should probably have caught at this age.  I have caught at least 8 that I can remember in  my short time playing cards.  Caught 6 of them or so playing Omaha and at least 2 playing Texas.

    I'm 20 been playing live since 17, never gotten one. 2 straight flushes though.
    For what it's worth my first time ever playing no limit live i remember laying down an open ended straight flush/royal flush draw on the flop. Since I have more gamble in me now i wouldve called

    I probably hold the world record but I never kept  hand histories of them and then after the first 4 or 5  I just kinda shrugged my shoulders at them and it wasn't a big deal anymore and I lost track. I think I probably have about 12 or 13.of course I was playing like 10 hours a day for like a year 1/2. almost all of them at partypoker and pokerstars, I know I had 2 at pokeroom because they gave me $50 once but the next time I got 1 they didn't have that promotion anymore and I actually had 2 in the same night at party poker

    I was once dating a waitress in vegas and needed to talk to her in her station. So I sat at a let it ride table, which is basically 5 card stud, no draws. Got a straight flush to the Queen!!!  Collected over 200-1 !!    In real poker, been playing cash and tourneys since the 1980's I have seen one Royal Flush and no it was not  my hand.
