How I learned my lesson

My first Royal Flush:


My second Royal Flush, one week later:

Congrats on both, especially the second one. I think this is one lesson you'll remember.

Oh, please excuse the crap payout tables.

Oh, I get it. On the first one you must have had fewer than all coins being played and therefore received less or else you were at a far worse machine.

Anyway, thats good luck to have had two Royal Flushes. What is it, one every forty thousand spins or one every four thousand spins or something?

Congratulations on both wins. I note on the first that you were down to only 5 units and betting them one at a time when the royal hit. It's as if the machine knew you were getting ready leave...

.....

Although you should always play full coin, there's absolutely no guarantee that you would have hit the Royal in game #1 if you had. Sure, it can be a "lesson learned" but it's nothing to berate yourself over.

This kills me. Everybody except me gets Royal Flushes! I've had one Royal in my life, and that was nearly 20 years ago! Granted, I don't play tons, but at twice a month for 3-4 hours a time each month for 20 years, you'd think I'd have hit more than one!

I haven't either, though I've hit 4 deuces in DW twice. First time was a single line machine at the Sahara and I was playing one coin (I know, but I didn't then). Second time was on a ten line machine at the Rampart playing max coin, but at $0.10 denomination.

Of course I play a lot less than you do...

Some of us out here haven't had one yet.....Boo Hooooo!
