Never had a Royal Flush folded or otherwise. Folded a straight flush in Vegas, where there was lots of action on the turn and river (after I'd folded) and the casino had a instant win bonus for making a straight flush, not happy.

No hand beats a royal flush, so you never fold. If you folded AQ of spades and the flop comes KJ,10 of spades
you have folded AQ of spades not a royal flush.

Never, but if you mean folding a potential Royal flush, then yes, I have.

If you mean the moments when at the beginning of the hand we fold and then have a combination on the river - then no. Several times I “threw away straight flushes” - if you follow this logic.:D:D

The main thing is not to get confused by surprise and avoid unwanted mistakes. The royal flush combination is to some extent a symbol of poker.I never folded.

Pre-flop, yes. But never on an open flop, a poker player will always take a risk and see if he calls.

It's very difficult to hit a royal flush, so if it happens, my move is of course to fold immediately. In my life I try to make logical decisions.

Folding a Royal Flush in poker is an extremely rare and unfortunate decision, as it's the highest possible hand. Typically, players aim to maximize their winnings with such a strong hand rather than folding.

Would have folded it anyway.

Never. Why would anyone fold a Royal Flush?

If you're playing razz! I nearly folded one once.

Kill The King!​


The day I nearly folded a Royal Flush
Was Guy Fawkes Night in Two Thousand And Six,
Even now at the thought of it I blush,
My crap hand very nearly came to nix.
I watched as three kings hit the Full Tilt flop.
And pressed the button indicating fold,
The ten of diamonds on the turn did drop,
And soon my garbage would transmute to gold.
’Twas only when the Queen D hit the river,
The action on this dead board would commence,
The quad man bet; my poor heart gave a quiver
As I unchecked the box, and feeling tense
I raised his four big kings to scoop the pot,
And quit the table happy with my lot.

I would never abandon a royal staircase, I have to confess that I accidentally threw some good hands due to lack of concentration, even though it was in lower-ranking tournaments.
