Im told that getting a single Royal Flush while playing video poker is 1 in 40,000, What are the odds of getting two in one day? #videopoker, #RoyalFlush, #VideoPokerOdds, #ChickenRanchCasino, #BlackOakCasino
Congratulations! I once got 2 royals in one night. One was on $1 denom for $4000 and the other was a progressive, $1 denom for $6600. Quite the surprise!
A co-worker and I were sent to Puerto Rico...we were gambling in a casino there, and in less than six hours I got two royal flushes.... He was sitting right beside me...and he also got two royal flushes! We seriously considered if the casino was rigged to pay out...because what are the odds of four royal flushes being handed out to two players sitting right beside each other--- in less than six hours!? It seemed too crazy. Neither of us have ever had luck like that again.
to calculate the probability, you need to know how many games you played. It is binominal distribution so you use P = combin(n,k) * p^k * (1-p)^(n-k) where n is the number of games played, k is the number of royals (2), and p is the probability of a getting a royal flush (1/40000). if you played 500 hands, it would be combin(500,2) * (1/40000)^2 * (1-1/40000)^(500-2) = 0.000077, which is about 1/13000 sessions.
