    No, straight flush twice, once live and once online.... 9 high straight flush is my best ever hand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,881 ✭✭✭JP Poker


    king high live (in the fitz about 3 years)
    royal online


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,894 ✭✭✭✭phantom_lord


    yup, once online. heaps of straight flushes online, also rivered a straight flush in a big pot in the fitz one night and saw two royal flushes dealt at the table I was playing that week. live poker is rigged.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,201 ✭✭✭Macspower


    Twice live in my life... both in the fitz. first one i flopped and didn't get paid..

    second one was a beauty. I called from the sb with Kh10h. flop AhKhx I was first to act and bet out for 10 (pot) 3 callers. turn Qh :eek: I kinda didn't know what to do... so I bet 10 again and the next player raises the pot and the next goes all in. I flat call and the raiser goes all in and covers me. I call and immediately declare my hand... amazingly both of them also had flushes..

    Ive had 3 online. When betfair changed software i got two in a week. I taught the software was odd for a while. They gave me 2 five dollar bonuses which i taught was very kind(not)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,400 ✭✭✭TacT


    5 online, 2 in tourneys, 3 at the cash tables + 2 straight flushes at cash tables.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,247 ✭✭✭ROCKMAN

    Once live, once online (I'm pretty sure, I doubt I would forget getting dealt a royal).
    Online was in some hu SNG where I didn't a penny out of the guy. Clubs btw.

    My second one, live, that was sweet. It was a €55 SNG and we were on the bubble. I was second in chips and limped/made a small raise from the button with 9hTh. The chip leader in the blind reraised and I called. The flop came AhJhQh and he checked. I bet out and he reraised all in. I called. He shows JQ. So now I'm just saying to myself "No jack, no queen". Then the king of hearts peels off. It took me a second to realise, then the guy beside me started clapping. Pretty sweet, a 6 card royal!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    The first time I ever dealt, within 15 minutes I dealt one, his opponant had quad queens as well which made it all the more better


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 16,793 ✭✭✭✭Hagar


    I've only ever had one. Play money only, no slagging thanks, I know my limits.

    I know I had K10h... like how many times do you get a stupid hand like K10h and it's worthless....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,092 ✭✭✭Glowingmind


    Had two online. One while playing on my brother's betfair account (a theme developing here?) - actually, does that count as mine or his?
    Once on party in a .25/.50 game for a decent sized pot.

    Not had one live since i used to be able to deal them to myself in 5 card draw as a kid.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,201 ✭✭✭Macspower


    have had them online many times... well 6 or 7 i guess maybe more..... I normally push the river and hope to get paid..... this was my most recent one. I like the roylars.....kinda hard to get outdrawn with them ;)

    Only had one in a live game playing 5cards draw about 6 yrs ago in a cash game.
    Six more online must be due one live again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,263 ✭✭✭strewelpeter


    Twice online within the last year, got well paid both times. And once in 5 card draw game in 1979 on the day the Pope was in the Phoenix Park and happily neither of those things were even close to the most memorable things of that particularly amazing day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,328 ✭✭✭hotspur


    I had 2 in week a couple of years ago. I think I'm up to 4 now. You uber aggro donks will never get one cause you go all in on the flop with your K high straight flush :P

    2 royal flushes, both live

    1 in 7 card stud and the other dealt to me pat in draw

    none online, bizarrely enough


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 113 ✭✭GrangeUtd


    2 times online. 1st time me and the small blind in a 10.20c game and i turn a royal flush with AdQd in an unraised pot!!! i check and min bet the river for 20c and he folds.. i was gutted...

    2nd time in a 3 way pot the board read 10s Ks Qs As Js!! i had Ad 9s i was ahead till the river... needless to say the 3 of us were ALL IN quicker than a brick dropped from a motorway bridge!!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 689 ✭✭✭JoeB-


    K high straight flush was best ever.... lask week I flopped JQKA, hearts I think... even the flush didn't hit in the end.... 30,000 hands played at least.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,083 ✭✭✭RoundTower


    when I started my job as a poker dealer in the Fitz, I dealt the bad beat jackpot after about 2 hours of dealing cash games. I dealt it to a mate (I think he used to post here) and I went mental, it was a lot of money at the time to me or to him.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 474 ✭✭delanec8


    I think im up to 4 for definite and maybe even 5 which were all online

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 583 ✭✭✭insafehands


    Never had a royal flush, only a wheel straight flush of clubs..s


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 948 ✭✭✭THEIRISHMOB


    Do I hold the record? (haha)

    13

    or am I playin too much poker....!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 302 ✭✭looserock


    Well there's no skill in catching royal flushes so when I say I'v lost count its not bragging,

    between live and online rf and sf possibly 30.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,013 ✭✭✭kincsem


    Two Royals online in tourneys, and one king high flush in a Fitzwilliam tourney.
    The best was a nine high straight flush in draw poker. I drew two cards to 5,6,9 hearts. It was a St Stephens night family / relatives game years ago for small money, but there was a full house, straight, and two pair against me.

    I've had four royal flushes so far, two online in hold 'em and omaha and two live in hold'em and omaha.

    The first hold'em one online I won the princely sum of €1.87 with the ATh.

    The live omaha one I didn't realise I'd hit it because the board paired with the Jc(my only out) to give the other guy a full house.
    That pot was worth close to €900.:D

    The live hold'em hand was in a cash game the board reads, As Td Qs 9h Ts.
    I have the KJs, I bet €25 on the river(its been checked down and i'm utg, 6 players in the pot), I get flat called by AT (house). When I ask why they didn't raise me, the reply is 'I was afraid of a flush'.!!!:eek:

    But this is my favourite one:

    While playing live yesterday, the guy beside me hit a royal, and I lost to a straight flush.

    I've got a few royal's online, never a royal live though, straight flush or two and quads live.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,165 ✭✭✭DEmeant0r


    Was dealt a royal flush live and online before, but that was months go


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,822 ✭✭✭tipp86


    well it wasnt me but one of my friends was in atlantic city we were both under 21 at d time with no fake id but we managed to get away with it just about we were trying to keep a low profile what happened after a few hours he hits a royal flush and yes we now become the center of attention i pretend not to now him as i felt we would be soon escorted from the premises.In the end all was ok he got to spin a royal flush wheel and won a margarita blender not what you expect when you hit a royal flush in atlantic city

    2-3 in life. None online.
    Flopped one in omaha live that I could not use. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,943 ✭✭✭Burning Eclipse


    I have seen 2 royals! Bout 3 months back my gf got a royal flush of spades. Flopped an open ended with her KsQs, hit the As on the turn. I couldn't believe it.

    Literally 7 days later I was playing heads-up with a mate. I was dealt Ks3s, flop AsJs5x, turn Qs. I remember betting small at this stage, my mate had the 8s, called chasing the flush. River was the 10s, I checked, he bet big knowing only 9s or Ks would beat him, I re-raised all in! 2 royal flushes in a week!

    Oh, as an aside, same game as my gf got the royal she was dealt QQ, I was dealt JJ, flop was JJQ... what are the chances of seeing this dealt? She ended up loosing big on that needless to say!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,079 ✭✭✭smurph


    Many moons ago in a far away land, way way before online poker, or the Texas Holdem Ipod revolution, I got dealt a Royal flush cold in 5 card draw in my local school hall (OLV on the Ballymun Road), I kept saying in my head "I have a Top straight and flush", oh right I have a "ROYAL FLUSH", apparently the blood drained from my face as I bet,

    Got the Best hand for the night IR£50 and also got the five cards framed and presented to me the following week (lol the 80's).....

    I got a royal flush in the Cash game in the fitz few years back, the board paired on the river and the other 2 players couldn't get their money in the post quick enough, both had houses...... nice pot of about €600
