Chuckles, you look like a fool saying that....a complete fool.

I read your post and then started to read the replies and gave up after
3 or 4, as I saw they were going nowhere but down the drain.

However, I have to challenge you on your statistics. Yes, the program
you ran gave you some numbers, but they don't PROVE anything. I think I
know who you're talking about, and if I'm correct, that person claimed
3 royals in one sitting, not the 4 or 5 that you've inflated it to.
While we all dream of it happening to us, it's rare but can happen, and
I never gave it a second thought when that poster claimed to have
accomplished that rare feat. Good on him!

I only ask one question: Why did you run the WinPoker program in the
way that you did? To challenge someone that made this claim several
months ago? If so, it seems very strange to me. Of course, I've seen
worse from some in this group. If you have a life, it must be a very
sad one.

I saw David get three or four Royals on a duces wild machine and I guess
those don't count because it was a duces wild, but I will say that David
is a VERY speedy player. As for me I have gotten one Royal (in spades,
by the way) and it was very cool after playing all those years. Tom in
