I was digging around my photos archive and i came across this photo of the royal flush I received in XBox Live’s Bicycle Casino. I was so excited to get a royal flush that I had to run and grab the camera and capture the moment. It was sa-weet.

First of all, congrats on the Royal Flush. I have never had one of those, and have never even seen one. Very Cool.
Second, that’s a nice picture of the TV screen image. Most of the time, those shots don’t turn out as clear as yours did. Kudos.
Third, Way to kick Ashanti’s butt!!!
your username is Dynomite?
Is that a tribute to JJ Walker on Good Times?
Ashanti likes to bluff alot. I don’t remember that hand precisely, but I’m sure I raised it after the flop. I hit top pair. She shudda folded then. Holding 2, 5 with just one diamond on the board? C’mon! Maybe I tried baiting her and just checked after the flop.
I love how she hit the flush too. That’s more salt in her wound. ***insert evil laugh here***
Televisions refresh at a rate of 60 frames per second. So the optimal shutter speed is 1/60, though I have found that 1/125 works as well.
Some simple math says that she had a 39% chance (better than a 1 in 3) of hitting a card that would give her either a straight or a flush on the river. If the pot is more than 3 times the amount of the bet that she needs to call, it is in her best interest to call.
Of course, this is all contingent on her believing that a straight or flush would be the best hand. Those types of hands will normally be enough to win though.
oooooooh, this is giving me a royal headache. i need to sit on the toilet and flush it.
omg i had a royal flush of hearts, i almost had a heart attack, i have pic to prove which is good!!
