SBR Royal Flush Promo: Win an iPad 2

Starting Monday, September 26th, an iPad 2 will be given to the first person to be dealt a Royal Flush in spades at the SBR Poker room.

The below conditions apply:

Promo terms
1. Hand must be dealt at a Texas Hold Em Ring table. Tournament games do not qualify.
2. Hand must be played to showdown. If your opponent folds on the river or prior, you are not eligible even if you show your winning hand. In the event that the community cards are 10-J-Q-K-A in spades, the players that play the hand to showdown will equally split the point value of an iPad 2 in the form of poker points with 3X rollover.
3. If the above requirements are satisfied, send Sam a PM or email with the Hand ID/history.

do you have to bet river, or can you still check it down? sort of confused by explanation.

there has to be a showdown. checking on the river is fine and is what you should do of course.

[azn624]

It has to be SPADES.

[Roxxyfish]

wrong read the terms ,if there are NO callers after the river card you are not eligible

i don't think he means it that way. i think he means that if you DO bet the river there has to be a call and showing after the guy folds doesn't count. forcing a river bet would be a ridiculous stipulation.

[BeerDog99]

This is cool and I would say it is really nasty if you are not allowed to check the Royal down at the river.

[pavyracer]

That rule is very stupid. You can bet 50c on the river and if no one calls you get screwed. If you check you still lose.

[SpeedPro]

I'll take it. I need to win something with all the poker I'm playin.

[milwaukee mike]

if you check you WIN. if both players check that is still a showdown pavy

[wtt0315]

i cant wait. i will get it on river and check and the other guy will time out by muck and i will lose it

[ouman101]

Christ there are a lot of retards on this site. Let me spell it out for the people who are slow.

You can have AK spades and the flop comes Q, J, 10 of spades. You check flop, turn, and river...thus it goes to a showdown. You PM Sam or Lou and collect your IPad 2.

Thanks for the promo SBR

What does it mean if there are no callers you don't win? That means if I check and the other guy folds I lose the RF. If I bet and the other guy folds I lose. So 2 out of 3 outcomes I lose.

don't bet so the only way you can lose on the river is if you check and the other guy just folds which is really rare.

thanks..this is the best option.

[Poker_Beast]

Sweet!!

[ThaddeusB]

If I win, can I take the point equivalent?

[BeerDog99]

If I win, can I take the point equivalent?

Nah, you give it to your favourite Beer swilling poker friend.... :-)

[wtt0315]

If I win, can I take the point equivalent?

you have too many points already
if you win they should donate yours to charity and give you a tax break

[hockeyman30304]

oh I cant wait for this one! anyone got an over/under on how long till it gets dealt? 2 days a good line or am I way off?

[ThaddeusB]

Considering only 1/4 royals count and only ring games count, a fair o/u is at least 1 week.

[aceking]

imagine someone folding at the river .

priceless .

[wtt0315]

yeah i could see it know two guys who hate each other at table. 4 to the royal out there and the one guy just folds doesnt check and the other guy had the royal..

[chachi]

[wquine]

never got a royal in my life. don't even know what that feeling is like to have the ultimate nuts...

[BigDaddy]

thanks sbr

[TLMR9]

WOW i'm in for the IPAD

Odds of getting a Royal Flush in Spades is 1 in 2.5 million.

Good Luck.

[azn624]

I would check it down if there was a possible royal.

[aceking]

so the person who helps to check at the river gets nothing ?

why should we not fold if we see 3 Spades ?

I think everyone who checks at the Royal Flush river should get an iPad2 too.

Exactly. Because only the first one will win the ipad. So if you see 3 spades on flop everyone should fold.

[DrStale]

If everyone does this every time then nobody will ever win it. Would imagine that someone winning an ipad would throw some points to the guy he beats or the people at the table (assuming theyre not one of the aholes around here)
