What are the odds of getting 10 royal flushes in 71000 hands? Any math guys wanna chime in?

I'm not a rigtard, usually, but this is just wild to me.

Not sure what you're referring to - but isn't it something like 700,000/1? In which case 7100/1 would be 100x more likely than average. I'm not good with this stuff to say the least but that seems like something of a statistical impossibility at first glance, to pull 10 in 71k.

Ya it's 649k to one, but I think that's two card RF. I don't think your math is right, but nevertheless a statistical impossibility is exactly what I was thinking too. Hopefully someone can do the math on this.

The website is working again on my laptop... changed nothing again, so it might have been a website issue after all.

Is there anyway to change table/background color for one specific table and not all of them?

Worst RNG of all time, it's not really close

So after some digging it appears 10 royals in 71k hands is indeed pretty crazy. You should have 1 royal flush in every 30k hands or so, if you play every hand that can possibly make a royal (at least 1 broadway card) and take them all the way to the river. 10 royals wouldn't probably be too far out of the realm of possibility if you had a 100% VPIP and 100% WTSD (though still nuts), but of course no one plays like that. Unfortunately, I had 7 of those royals in about 5000 hands, which seems to me to be impossible, or nearly so. I'm not here complaining about losing either, I'm up about 2.5k on global in those 71k hands. The royal thing is too much for me to take seriously though. Combined with the fact you can't see hand histories past 30 days, and the weird **** I've seen in tournaments (where I have a 150% ROI-albeit small sample), I've removed my roll and won't be playing there anymore. Not trying to convince anyone not to play there. Do what you will. But my personal experience is enough proof for me.

Is there any way to get the Santa's Riches game to skip animations.... I got 1500 spins to make over the next 5 hrs and you can only auto spin 100 at a time, plus it stops when you get Bonus Round so its really hard to afk spin it up.

I started today at work with 1200/3500 and after 6 hours I am only up to 2000... I dont think Im gonna get in the Satty

Plus the Santa game in the "popular games" tab is NOT the game for the promo, so I wasted at least 1k spins in that game for nothing....

Been a bit since I’ve played here, how is the NL high-stakes scene looking nowadays? Active RTA users a major threat still?

Also shout-out to the homie Tricho, he is a cool guy

I'm sure you're smart enough to figure out why a poker player thinks getting 50x more royals than they should is a bad thing.

Well this has been asked and ignored already, but I don't see a gold star anywhere and I hunted for that bitch for all month. No answer from support either. Idk.

I would like to see the screenshot of it not being there after you hit the red casino tab if you don't mind

I'm guessing that since you're asking, you're not self-excluded from the casino games (as that would obviously do it). I'd contact support.

The promo was the below, copied from the email. What does this have to do with casino games?

🎄 Friday:



Home For The Holidays Flops Challenge
SC 5,000 Guaranteed [Turbo] - SC 0.11 Buy-In at 20:00 ET



Just make sure you see 1,500 flops on Gold Coin ring games and enter before it begins!

Dunno... but the rules say:

"Once you opt-out of the Promotion, you will no longer
have access to the Daily Challenges and Promo Challenges and will not be able to
participate in any aspect of the Promotion. "

If you self-excluded from the casino, you won't be able to see the star. It happened to me as well.
