    Yeah as cooker said. You can calc it by:
    20/52*4/51*3/50*2/49*1/48.

    Thats on any single 5 card deal,
    In a hand of holdem you have 21 unique hands, and in omaha you have 60 unique hands.
    A hand being 5 card poker hand, so that speeds up the process significantly.

    Its still ~587,000 to 1 even taking the 21 permutations into account in holdem. I think

    No its not.
    (52*51*50*49*48)/(4*5!) is 649,740/1
    Thats thats odds in a 5 card hand, say 5 card stud hand.

    In HE you have 21 hands so chances are increased proportionaly

    I hit them often enough. However whenever i hit one, someone always seems a have a Royal Flush in a higher suit.

    It never happens to me on Stars, but it's happened to me a lot on UB, probably because of superuser accounts.

    had never hit one...hit one today, but only on omaha, which i guess isn't as rare. the looser in the hand hit one next hand. bit bizarre i thought.
