The Mrs and I were playing dueces wild over the weekend,
and we were each dealt 4 to a Royal, No dueces.

It was exciting, but would have been a lot more exciting
IF either of those had come up with the 5th card we
needed.

No luck, maybe next time. We'll be in LV the last week
of March.

Over the past number of years, we've hit 3 royals
between the two of us. The most recent was a couple
of years ago at Paris on a quarter machine. We were
just killing time, but I chose not to play because they
weren't full pay schedules.
There's emptiness behind their eyes There's dust in all their hearts They just want to steal us all and take us all apart

Welcome to what I call the "46 club" - when you are dealt 4 to a Royal, 46 of the 47 cards left in the deck aren't going to fill it.

I've been a member of the 46 club so many times that I didn't even blink an eye the last time I got 4 to the royal. Then that time it hit. That was my second royal, the first one I only held one card. Took me a few seconds to realize what I had.
