Summer and I play Texas Hold ‘Em Poker a couple times a week. Our buddy has a home game on Monday and Saturdays and Summer and I host a home game every Wednesday night. The way the game goes at our buddies house, everybody pays $10 to buy in and an extra buck towards the “Royal Flush Fund.”
They have been playing poker for almost 3 years..averaging between 5 & 18 people. That’s between $5 and $18 a night towards the Royal Flush Fund, three nights a week for the past 2 or three years! That fund money is used to buy fans, re-surface the felt on the tables, buy cards and if anyone ever gets a Royal Flush, half of the Flush Fund goes to the person who gets the flush and the other half of the fund is split evenly between everyone else that is playing the game.
The odds of getting a Royal Flush are 1 in 649,740. Guess what happened at Poker last Wednesday night.
UPDATE:
If any of you play poker, you probably won’t believe this. If you don’t play poker, read what the odds of getting a Royal Flush are…then don’t believe what I am about to say. This guy who got the Royal Flush on Monday (Spades) got ANOTHER ROYAL FLUSH last night…but this time it was diamonds. Two poker nights in a row. Last night the Flush Fund was only back up to $27 so he didn’t really clean up…but that wasn’t the point.

It was awesome to see the royal flush finally hit!! I can’t wait until I get a royal flush. But hopefully I’ll do it in the Mayaguez casino playing Carribbean Stud Poker. I think their “royal flush fund” is up to $50,000
Ooh, the hand that everyone wants. Congrats!
I’ve played a fair few hands online but the nearest I’ve come is a straight flush.
Jeezus! 2 Royal flushes?
The guy must be cheating. Check up his sleeves!
Apparently poker teaches, who knew? Resource management and risk assessment among other things.
