Have you ever managed to make a royal flush ?

Not in a while. Just had a straight flush a few minutes ago, which I seem to be getting or at least seeing every couple of weeks.

Edit - just saw another one (A2345) a minute ago.

This year I hit my 50th Royal Flush online (in NLHE). It was in the Staples game on Partypoker on Mar.20
That's since 2010 so I guess I'm averaging just over 3x/year. But back on Aug.15/2020 I actually hit TWO Royals on the very same day

Does it really count with 1 hole card only ?

Stringy · 2026-05-25T06:06:43-0400

Just wondering what would be reason to prohibit sharing hand history, any idea?

"What I can say is what happened to me when I lost my GGPoker account". I was told there was a complaint about me disclosing my hand history. GGPoker support told me there are rules against sharing hand history, one of which is that you are not the only player at the table, and they claimed that, in addition to giving opponents an advantage in finding loopholes in the algorithm, it also undermines the fairness of online play.

Yes, more than 10 times.

thedarkman · 2026-05-25T12:33:57-0400

Lots of times at Omaha. Think I might have had one at hold em too, can't remember off-hand.

Rachidao · 2026-05-25T13:03:20-0400

Never, years playing already and none royals.

LUKADONCICMVP · 2026-05-25T13:04:49-0400

of course i did, but no big $ involved

cwdignus · 2026-05-25T14:29:12-0400

Yes, but it didn't carry much weight in the tournament; it almost went unnoticed. When we need to win, any victory is what matters, a higher pair.

It happens so rarely it made me very HAPPY

And your hand was so well disguised too lol. I don't think you could have better hand if you tried. Maybe if 10 Q were showing instead of KJ but that's about as perfect as you'll ever get.

Made one the other day in a bounty tournament.

Sharing hand history... pretty sure that depends how, when and to whom. From their response it sounds like they are referring to a) sharing a HH in real time b) sharing it with another for a gained advantage
How could sharing Hand Histories to be viewed by general public be against the rules? What about all the streamers on Twitch? What about the players who are streaming exclusively for GG on Twitch?

Do we need to use 'both' holecards for any hands during the game? (pretty sure you can have quad Aces with only one Ace in your hand & 3 of them on the board)

ninocabral · 2026-05-25T16:32:38-0400

I've done it several times today I got one right in a 1.10 tournament

Well, you can interpret it in the way you think is best; It's even worth consulting support about this; I am just sharing what happened to me.

Only one time in cash games and a few in freerolls.

Have you ever managed to make a royal flush ?
