i'd love to see the screen shot though is it a jpg file? load it to www.tinypic.com and copy and paste the URL here. |

Would you be as impressed if you saw 1,4,3,2,3,5,1,6 for a 25? Same odds. |

at 11:52 PM, Thursday March 8, 2007 EST same odds as getting that SPECIFIC pattern of numbers leading up to 25, but NOT the same odds as just rolling a 25...

at 12:05 AM, Friday March 9, 2007 EST wow semagon, you must not get excited if someone gets a royal flush or wins a powerball either. i can see how those are about as exciting as getting any other random set of cards / lottery numbers.

at 12:45 AM, Friday March 9, 2007 EST you are right this is rare. 1:1679616.
As long as you dont comlain that the RNG must be broken because this happened (what i cannot see in your post) there is nothing to "know it all" |

Actually, I once got a royal flush on the flop on Poker Stars...not real money though) - it was pretty exciting. I even took screenshots and only called so that I would be able to show it off to the other players. |
