    Really depends on how persistent people are. Problem is jacks or better is a game where it's very easy to lose big quickly. Although the overall payout % of the game is quite reasonable most of the EV of it comes from hitting a royal. If one were to take that out of the equation probably the payout would drop from like 99% to 90%.

    So it tends to be a game where you either win big if you get lucky and get the royal or lose a fair chunk if you don't. And not sure how many can persevere losing more and more until the miracle comes.

    But the odds of getting a royal are actually about 2 / 10,000 in this game - actually probably a bit better than getting 3 blackjacks in a row. And someone was able to do the latter so why not this?

    People also losing quick because they are intentionally playing sub-optimal strategy (at least under normal circumstances) to go for royal.

    why would nonpros play anyway?


    I mean their points are meaningless and even if they win, the points are useless

    kgambler, i will throw another 100 points on the fact that no one hits the royal before 6:30 est at the 1 to 1. I cant quite do the 7:30 that you mentioned



    Where i really think that it will happen is when guys wake up and start betting baseball and football tomorrow

    Can't do 6:30 just because I think the site is pretty dead right now. So these next couple are like the dead hours, until the Europeans wake up. But because you gave me action I will still let you take 7:31 even though the time limit is past. As long as you send in the next 5 minutes.

    PO, I'm sure if someone rolled 10k pts to a decent amount, they would consider going pro(even though you can only take 5K with you)

    well how about this for just this bet. If a nonpro is the only one who hits it before 7:31 est, then we would tie.


    If both a pro and nonpro hit it, then you win. I would only win for no one to hit it with a chance at the tie

Yeah, I realize if I did rollover the whole amount it wouldn't matter since you can only keep 5K points when turning SBR Pro. But that is why I'm not going to try to rollover anything until I turn SBR Pro. I'm just waiting for better options to become Pro, I wish I could deposit $200 at a Sportsbook or just buy Pro membership with the current points I have.....only options now I think are donate $200 to charity and I'm not going to do that.

    I should have become Pro last year, I would have won $300 or so from the beat the prick contest last season. I thought I would do it this year for football but now the option to become pro sucks. Wish SBR would allow me to buy membership for 5k points or something.

    kgambler, for our bet that ends at noon, the royal flush must be verified by a moderator.




    I am shocked at how soon guys won the other props. Hell i never got to play a single game of roulette and someone had hit it

    Well the roulette, you could essentially play 1 spin every few seconds. And given the odds of hitting double 0 are only about 1 in 1369, it's no wonder, with the number of people playing, that it got hit so quickly.

    More surprised that someone hit blackjack fairly quickly, odds-wise that's the hardest one I think, and yet many hours later no one has hit video poker.

    Myself, I gave the video poker a long try, but I've given up. As the game will do, unless you get lucky and hit a big hand it will just bleed you over and over. I personally had had enough! Good luck to all those trying, hopefully someone gets it soon to remove the temptation for me to try again haha.

    I would say the Royal Flush is much harder than the 3 straight BJs. To hit a RF while playing optimal strategy is about 1 in 40,000. With people playing for the royal, maybe it is more like 1 in 30,000.

    3 straight BJs would be more on the order of 1 in 10,000. And I am sure way more people are willing to play BJ than JoB.

    PO, I don't want to get involved in the pro/non-pro stuff because I think there can be only 1 winner. Yes, the RF will have to be verified by a mod, but not verified before the time specified. It seems they don't want to verify anytime soon.

    Royal Flush on Jacks or Better, gotta play min 2.50 (set to 0.50, bet max = 5 coins = 2.50 pts)

    I started with 200pts, played several hundred hands, finally bled me dry. Whoever hits the royal flush is going to deserve it, very hard to hit. Whoever wins it should post how long they had to play for.

    I just played for hours and lost 650 points. Jacks or better bled me completely dry. I was going for the royal and it was just slow and steady watching my points evaporate for hours. I had maybe 4-5 hands where I had 4 to the royal and 1 time where I got dealt 4. Can't believe I wasted all my points on this.

    Haha you foks. You knew I was going to try to sneak that 3 BJs through. Didn't expect anyone to take me seriously. Broke even after an hour of Jacks/better. Up 1400 or so playing blackjack so not total disaster.

    1 spin every few seconds?



    with fast play on, i probably had over 100 spins in the first minute (gave just me alone a 1/10 chance or so of hitting it in the first minute)

    craps is a little slower because you have to replace bets on the pass line occassionally

    i fully expected craps and roulette to both be gone within 2 minutes

    i have to admit that i played the wrong games at the start. No one has tried this damn jacks or better more than I have during the last 8 hours, and now I quit.



    I may never step in the sbr casino again. But sbr has to get back the points to pay for these ipads somehow.




    kgambler, if the normal odds of hitting a royal are 1 in 40,000, then i would have to assume that the odds of hitting it in an online casino would have to be at least double that.
