    WOW almost got a straight flush on let it ride
    first 4 cards were 2356 hearts
    had 10 out there twice, would've been 20,000 points!

    had to post because just to really get me irritated my card on the left on the next deal was the 4 of hearts


    so it was either the next card in the deck or the 3rd, not sure how the computer deals since they flop at once

        Last time I was in Vegas I was playing Let it Ride and the lady immediately to my right got up to go to the restroom. Very next hand I got the cards she would have had and hit 4 of a kind

                    sorry i forgot to ask you before i posted this, i was aware that you were the expert on thread-worthiness and should've asked you for a ruling - even though this was an interesting event in the SBR CASINO


                    i am just a little confused though, if you're not even sure this should've been a thread then why would you waste any of your precious time responding to it? you should've just pm'd me reminding me that i cannot start threads without your approval

                      Really? If she didn't leave, you wouldn't have won. The dealers 2 cards would have been different due to one less player, playing. You should say a prayer and thank her.

                        10 points out there twice is 12k. 200-1.

                          In all my play at the dgs casino, real $$$ play, when involved in a big hand like that or a royal, I noticed more of a mini pause when the last dealer card shows. I say I average about 2 straight flushes a month on a yearly basis of consistant play. The most I had was $15 in each circle last year. The most ever was $6 in each circle for a royal at 1000-1 two years ago. Two other times $5 in each circle for a royal. Great game.

                              I've had one on Bodog when I first started gambling years ago...but was only betting $1 and wasn't making the side bet. I'm still convinced I only got one so I would start betting the side.

                                I hit 4 of a kind back to back one time on BetPhoenix, was worried I wouldn't get paid from it but no issues.

                                  Thats awesome! believe me, I;ve played a lot of hands and had 2 4 of a kinds within 30 hands of eachother. Another time I had 3 4 of a kinds in a 1/2 hour, all 3 were 7's. One my best day of playing I had about 5 or 6 in one day. prob about 8 hours of play. Sometimes when it rains it pours. Sometimes i haven;t hit one in 2 months.

                                    Was this when they used the same software, dgs? I see they switched.

                                      great catch rob, but your math is off too - at 200-1 i would've only gotten 2000+2000 or 4000
                                      for some reason i was thinking 1000-1 but that's only the royal

                                      now i don't feel so bad

                                            I once hit a royal flush and 5 of a kind back to back on a joker poker machine.

                                              I can't argue about my math sucking. I thought you pulled $10 (10 points we'll say) in a circle and had $10 in each of the remaining two circles.

                                              I've played a fair amount on sbr, but only got about maybe 10 4 of a kinds since it all started. I never had over 700 points when playing.

                                              I like to start small, maybe 2 points in each circle and try to go on a roll. You gotta love when playing this software and you hit a straight, royal and you win a lot how the chips slowly cascade down and make the chips stacking up sound.

                                                  I can't stand it when this happens. I tend to be superstitous and do odd things when I need that last card. For example if i HAVE 3 10'S SHOWING. i'LL COUNT TO 10 before i hit for the next card.

                                                  Yes, I know it probably plays no factor whatsoever, but I do it anyway sometimes.

                                                      Yes, I know it probably plays no factor whatsoever, but I do it anyway sometimes.
                                                      speaking of that i got dealt 3 10s on let it ride at a casino in wisconsin dells a few months ago when i was playing crazy $25 x 3
                                                      i was literally praying for another 10, or at least a pair for the dealer - didn't get either

                                                      won 225 on the hand but it felt like a loss, 825 would've been better and 3750 would've been awesome

                                                      fun game but unlike blackjack/paigow/etc there is a HUGE difference between hitting your card and not hitting

                                                        Been dealt 3 of a kind maybe 20 times in real land casinos and never got one. It sucks when you have the say, 3 10s and you catch a glimspe of the person's cards next to you and see the other 10. Hey, it is still a winnder, but lets the wind out of your sails.

                                                          yeah that actually has happened to me too
                                                          people just hold their cards out for all to see quite a bit, if i see a bunch of hearts around me for example and i have nothing 10 or higher i'm pulling back 4th street with 4 hearts

                                                          i was playing by myself last time though with those 3 10s and i was only playing let it ride because the dumbass poker room there closes between 2am and 6am
