Has anyone ever gotten a Royal Flush in a 'real-world' game? I've come close a couple of times. And I've never seen anyone draw it.

I have never seen one or had one. Neither in real life or online. It really is a rare feat. I admire all the stories I hear about people getting them though.

The best hand I've had was 2 pair. The others laid down their hands: Full House and 3 of a kind. I laid mine down slowly, " I've got 2 pair. Two aces and....two aces. I know that's 4 of a kind, but I chose the dramatic route. $250 all mine Very Happy

Saw a few online. One in a cash game vs. me. Guy moved all in for like 12 bucks in a $3 dollar pot. Board was JQKAx all spades(and probably not in that order) and opp had the ten of spades. I said I had a black ten and folded (which I did), and he showed the ten of spades. Yippy kay yay.

My wife has twice. Once @ the trop in AC playing 7-Stud, and once in a home game playing O8. She's the luckiest poker player alive imo lol. I hit the steel wheel a couple weeks ago playin' Hold'em. Both cards in the hole, 3h5h. I've had a couple other straight flushes in free rolls, once in a small cash game, but haven't had a royal yet live, two online.

Saw one on PS the other day. I had pocket Jacks. The flop came down KsQsX. Folded to aggression. Turn was Js. Guy had As10s for the royal. Glad I got away with the pair before the set showed up. I believe the river paired the board, which surely would of cost me my stack.

I've gotten 2 in live omaha, 1 in live holdem, and 1 in live 5 card draw. I think I've gotten 3 online, all in omaha.

Yeh I've had two in live play. One in a tournament, after only a couple of months playing (following maybe a couple of years of rare home play) and the other last week in a heads up game. (I took a pic off my phone/cell). If I ever work out how to bluetooth it to my computer I'll post it.
My first RF came on the river but my second...

I'm BB with J 10 spades. Dealer calls. I check.
Flop A K Q (in that order).
I check. My friend shoves all in.
I look at my cards and say: "I'm afraid your drawing dead. I call"
He turns over 4 2 off.
Oh dear...

Still neither of them won me anything. But having played some 30-50000 hands now to have two seems amazing considering the odds.

i've never seen one, let alone have one. live or online, the best i've seen is when my friend flopped a K-high straight flush against the nut flush in a home game.

on my 18th, my first ever hand of live cash i flopped quad aces, but that's about it. was pretty sweet too.

Recently flopped one online Smile Made a topic about it

I've never played live before but I will definitely be going to my local casino in the near future if it hosts low stakes poker Wink
