$3 seven spot BJ table single deck 3:2 with royal match(3:1 suited) with 4 players and one guy playing three hands. Deck was drilled down not shorted. The guy bought in for $1K and within 25 minutes he was up $5k. He bet $50 per hand with $100 on each royal match. He never changed his bet. As soon as he went up $5k he left. The royal match he only had to hit 1 out of 4 to break even. Any win was gravey on the royal. The 4 hands broke even if he hit 2 hands and he never took a break card unless he went after a second royal match on that single hand. He always stayed on 12-16 and went for the house bust. It was fun to watch.

Just goes to show you anything can happen in the short term. Just be sure to make an appointment to be there when he returns and loses it all back, plus more.

He played $50 a hand and always stayed? *sigh*
Must have hit a few royal matches... they were probably a better bet than his BJ bet.
