One casino in Reno, NV, just had a weird situation. One player got a "natural straight flush", A-2-3-4-5-6-7, completely lining up in order, directly from Shuffle Master's shuffler. What is the probability for having this kinda hand? Gaming Control took the shuffler to inspect and could not find anything wrong (they are no WOO). Your thoughts?

Yeah, and every once in a while, someone gets 10 out of 10 in Keno.

It happens. Not often, but it happens.

I have seen the 7-card natural straight flush twice in five years in the casino pit, one natural.
There are 154,143,080 possible combinations of 7-card hands with a 53-card deck (one jopker).
there are 32 natural straight flushes (Ace to eight, in each suit).

This is 32/154143080 = 0.00000020759932914
or
one in every 4,816,971.25 hands.

The last time it happened, about several months ago, the player did not play the jackpot bet, and had a single dollar up on the bonus at 8,000:1.
