My first royal flush!!

Ok, technically the 2nd, but the first one was the 5 cards on the table and split the pot 3 ways. First one I've had myself, chuffed to actually win something with it too. Glad the guy was sporting about the loss too.

Very nice! And a pretty nice pot to boot. Congrats

That's great, congrats.

Glad you won some good money with it. I have had one 3 times and never seem to get a good pot with it.

Fantastic hand bud.
I know this hand isnt up for analysis, but at the very least how about a minimum bet on the river? He would have called that I think. He put $36 into that pot, he wasnt gonna fold to a minimum bet, and even if he did, you could still have showed.
+rep for hand!

That one wins the Oops of the Week Award. Good job

I agree with KD on this one, at least a minimum bet to maxamize your winnings. Great job though. I've had it a couple times but people fold before I can get money out of them.

Yeah, could have value bet but he knew he was beat here and I really didn't think this guy was going to pay out on the river, he's a solid player who multi tables regularly and I know he's more than capable of laying his cards down to a bet on the river here.

However, my notes on him say "bluffs too often on flush boards", I put him on a pair, or low flush at best. Thought I might just get another stab at the pot out of him on the river. Unfortunately it wasn't to be, but I couldn't have wished for a better opponent when you hit a royal flush

Very nice hand

Nice hand, and nice played.

Nice hand... I mucked my only royal flush. (I meant to hit show.. but then thought it would be cool to muck it)
