I HAVE ALREADY BEEN MAKING THE ROYAL FLASH ONE TIMES AND AT THIS TIME I GOT A TOURNAMENT OF 11.00 DOLLARS WITH A ROYAL FLASH.

I would play it as if I hit the low pair, but if/once raised, I would play as if I hit top pair.

Play that is too slow causes just as much suspicion as a play that too fast, like over betting the pot by a large margin.

As Phil Gordon says, I try to get it all in with the best hand...

It's tough if no one bets. Check the flop. Hopefully some will bet on the turn, if not, personally I would 2x bet, showing some weakness. Hope for good action on the river.

In all my games I have never collected a royal flush. And to imagine that I collect a royal flush on the flop can't. In this situation i will smile from ear to ear!!! :D :D :D :D :D
I think after the flop for a start do check. On the turn - I'll put a bet to collect more chips. On the flop make the minimum raise. Well, if someone raises I don't mind in this situation, make the call:):):).

Hope that I have to deal with a crazy opponent! If I'm in position I would check back the flop and try to get action in the turn. But seriously sometimes holding the absolute nuts is not a blessing because is hard to get paid well :p

The local casino I play at offers Royal Flush Bonuses. Spades pays out the highest with the other 3 differing in amounts as well. I'm not sure if I would try to squeeze more money out of the other players *cash games* or just check and call everything and be happy with the bonus.

Accordingly i go mad☝️

totally depends on your reads on your opponents & your own current image at the table. Having said that, most uber premium hands don't get paid so all you can do is bet out a standard C_bet & hope somebody catches something.

A few days ago I had a royal flush in the Cardschat freeroll. I won the maximum I could. It was at the end of the first hour just before the first break. I had 10c Kc.

I wouldn't slow play it as many others have suggested they would. If someone has a reasonable hand (2 pair, trips, flush), they are going to call a bet and I want to build a decent pot rather than worry I am going to scare everyone away. Building a pot also gives some loose players reason to think about bluffing which they might not if there is little in the pot to fight for. I wouldn't go crazy but I would definitely look to build a pot early.

I just know that it will never get to show down and nobody else will ever know.

(Remember that according to the rules of poker you are required to bet the nuts on the river).

If I had flopped a royal flush, I would hope that my opponent is capable of 3 barreling with whatever two cards so that I can get paid :D

I think that would depend on my opponents and how many people were in the pot. Where am I in action? I would most likely check no matter what, unless I'm last to act. Then I may put out a small feeler bet. You have to build the pot up somehow.

If I limped into the pot, I would probably check-call the first two streets in hopes that the competition will catch a hand. If I raised pre-flop, I would make a weak c-bet in hopes to get raised, and just call his bet. Then check-call the turn (assuming he fires a second barrel) and bet big on the river depending on it's suit, try to make it look like have a broken flush draw and I'm just trying to steal the pot. I may probably have given more detail than required to answer this question. lol. Another interesting thing to ask is would you show the hand if the player folds? I myself, probably would not if it's a live game against expert players. Would not want them to pick up on my 'monster holding' tells.

First of all, I should make a screenshot and show it to my friends. Then I should play really passive, but still raise a few dollars every time.
