Hey everybody, been reading some good stories so I thought I'd add my own.
A few buddies of mine get together ever couple of weeks to have an easy going game of Hold'em. This particular night will long be remembered. It was about mid way through our game when it was my turn to deal. I shuffled as usual and asked for a cut as usual. (So I know no one messed with the deck). After the down cards are dealt out we go three handed to the flop, it comes up 10s Js Qs in that order. I just look around smiling at my buddies asking Royal Flush anyone? So we all bet and call and go three handed to the turn. It comes the Ks. Now we are all looking at each other trying to figure out who if anyone has got that elusive ace of spades. This time we check around in fear and possible entrapment. The next card comes As. I was sitting there stunned. I had just dealt a Royal Flush on the board IN ORDER!!!. I should say I went all in, but unfortunately I was called by my two buddies 
Since then I've always wanted to know the odds of that happening, and by the way I burned a card after the flop and turn as well. |

Burned cards are irrelevant when trying to work it out. I make it 0.000000000321 |

Pretty pissed, but not as pissed as I would have been had I had the 9 of spades, and someone else was holding the ace. |
