One maybe only the wizard would know

What are the odds in no limit Texas holdem that one player flops a royal straight flush holding QTs & the other player holding AK, turns aces full? Calculate this having happened about 5 years ago in las Vegas at a casino that did not have a bad beat Jack pot. I can't remember where I was playing. So my question really is 2 fold, calculating the first equation with the number of casinos in (new)Vegas that didn't offer a bad beat Jack pot? It still amazes me till this day that 1, I lost to a flopped royal & 2 was at what seems like the only casino in the world that didn't offer a bad beat Jack pot lol. I appreciate the opportunity to share my story and look fwd to the approx probability of this happening. Thanks again, I appreciate your time!
Regards,
PJC

Would it make you feel better to know that your hand was not a Bad Beat qualifier?





The first time I saw the BB, around 6 years ago in A.C., the minimum hand was Aces full - but it required pocket aces!



Today, the typical minimum hand is quads, and still requires a pocket pair.



On the flip side, the Royal qualified. You need to use both cards for a qualifying Straight Flush. If you hold the bottom end of a six card SF, sorry. Doesn't count.
