I've been playing poker for over 11 years, and it's hard to say for sure. However, I have had this combination at least 12-14 times all the time.

I once had a game when I was in university. I had KQ of hearts, flop is AJ10 of hearts flopping me a royal flush. My opponent had pocket AAs. I checked the flop, she raised, I called. Turn was the remaining Ace. I checked, she raised, I re-raised, she went all in. Never seen anybody ever lose with Quad As.

There was a similar hand at WSOP2006.
I can't imagine how the person who lost with quads of aces felt...

Not even once. A straight flush maybe 5-6 times and quads 10 times.

The sample size would be around 200k hands.

Sometimes they come across, mostly in Omaha. But I don't count them.

Yes, they were in Omaha. Once in a day, I lost 2 times to the senior full house against four of a kind. Annoyance.

Very Rare

They are hard to get, for sure

I've had a few straight-flushes, over the years,
but only one Royal in all the time I've been playing (10 years)

I hit one during a freeroll today on ACR.

I raised on the Button with AQ clubs. SB shoved with 6s.
Flop was Tc Jc Ah
Turn was a 3
River was Kc

It was overkill. I was more interested in doubling up than hitting a royal flush. I think if I hit one in the casino then the floor person might have given me a buffet voucher. I've seen that happen before where a guy did that and got a nice dinner.

I have seen many four of a kinds but rarely a straight flush, let alone royal flush.

I've had two royal flushes and some straight flushes. Although royal flush is very strong, I think I just need a straight flush to win a big pot. I remembered I won a big pot when I had a straight flush and the opponent had an A high flush.

I've been playing poker since 2016, and I've had a royal flush about 5-6 times. That is, on average, I think once a year. It's usually quite rare but still it's something.

Fleshroyal collected several times. The most memorable was in a cash game at the micros, I had a flush royale from the flop, all the players checked, it was clear that no one had anything, and I really wanted to open such a hand, and there was no way to raise, I had to check and open for 10 cents, but everyone at the table was pleasantly surprised:):):)

Ashamed to say that I've lost count.

More than five but less than fifteen..? :dontknow:

Can recall instances of making a royal on the flop, turn and river. :)

Flopping it is a great feeling but rivering it is probably more likely to lead to getting paid.

Have only made them online, not had one live yet... :(
