    This number may be a little off, but this is what I found on the web about RF odds. The odds of getting a Royal Flush in Texas Hold 'Em Poker are 649,740 to 1 or about 0.0015%. Pretty insane how often it hit, but we all know variance can be a bitch.

    gratz to all the winners and thumbs up for sbr continuing the award even after the second time, which I thought was unlikely.

    didn't read the whole thread but there is something fishy about a guy winning it twice.

    whats the probability on that??

    anyone who knows even the slightest bit about poker knows the odds of this happening are astronomical. No other explanation other than THIS IS NOT RANDOM. Sbr is clearly doing this to get people to play the tourneys.

    Bad move here SBR. very bad move. you just compromised the integrity of sbr poker.

    Time to play at a REAL poker site.

    odd are 649,739 : 1 or 0.000154%

    multiply that 3 times. or the same guy winning it twice....

    just blew your cover big time SBR. THIS IS NOT RANDOM and the integrity or the sbr poker interface is completely null.

    Talnted, why do you think they would want people to get 5,000 points? I mean they wouldn't make sense.

    small price compared to the number of people who will want to play poker now because of this. they will get the points back very fast.

    If would take a hell of a lot of rake to make up the over 100K in points they have given out in Royal Flushes along. I am sure the idea was of the RF promo was to increase traffic and they SBR has just gotten unlucky with it hitting against the odds. It's awesome that they haven't tried to do anything to discourage this. I have gotten the points within the half hour of hitting it both times.

    I doubt anything is screwed up with the software so to speak. If anything this PROVES the randomness more. Royal flushes are infinitely possible every hand....not likely...but possible. CONGRATS TO WINNERS!
