Why Big Hands Suck, The Truth About having a Lock!

Royal Flush, Poker hands

If you’ve never had a Royal Flush you might just be dreaming of the day when your time is coming. Truth be told the better your hand the worse the payout, ussually! Thats of course bcause when hands like this happens the board just scares the shit out of any player worth his salt.  You bet hard and they think twice about mixing it up., even if their holding strong hands themselves. This is my sixth Royal Flush and I think I won a grand total of nine cents :( on this one. Still being the sixth it is a testament to just how much poker hands I have played as you on average get one once in every 589,000 hands.

The Other Royal Flushes were all for the most part uneventful as well. I got one while vacationing in Atlantic City. It was conviently enough one week after they ended a get a Royal Flush Jackpot.  In at least 2 everyone folded and one my very first royal flush I trashed the competition who called an all in. Unfortunately, I was at a play money table I had Just been Busted from the real one.

The second and best time I got a Royal (only 2 days after my first royal) I was playing in a homegame tournament and turned my straight +flush redraw. When the river hit my chair cracked under my weight and I went sprawling to the floor without seeing the card. That card musta hit you hard the dealler joked and I brushed myself off and slowly rose to see the Ace of Diamonds that Gives me the Royal. “Yeah , Terry hit me right between the eyes” I’m all in. We all laughed and my opponent called. The pot I dragged was more than half the chips on the table. I won the tournament along with $300 I got a good story and that’s Probably woth more than anything!

So Remember No matter how you play your hands take away this, The Joy of Playing (Poker ) will outlast any gain you could ever hope to get. And always rember a good story will last you long after your winnings are spent!
