Hi Svindl3r,
There are 2598960 unique 5-card poker hands.
4 of them are royal flushes -- one for each suit.
So the odds are 2598956:1 against getting a royal flush. or about 0.000154%
Assuming I did the math right.
So for every 2.6 million hands you play, you can expect one.
However, I've played about 400,000 hands of 5-Card draw, and I've had two -- one pat, and I drew to one.
I've had one playing Hold'em (unknown but very large number of hands) and one playing Omaha Hi/Lo split (less than 100,000 hands)
Cheers,
