    20190615_123024.jpg My 15 year royal drought finally ended this afternoon at Resorts in AC! It's been so long that when it happened I was speechless. I sat there dumbstruck, then took my picture, then cashed out and went home!

    Congratulations! I haven't seen one of those in 17 years. Hit at the old O'Shea's on my honeymoon. Lobster that night. Marriage didn't last, but still a great memory.

    What was the original deal?

    10, Ace, Queen of Diamonds for sure! Seems like a no brainer to go for the Royal at that point. I would gladly give up JOB, or even two pair at that point.

    I threw away the K of clubs and a 6 of diamonds. I know I'm supposed to go for the flush, but I prefer the shot at the royal. I'm okay with the hit to my EV.

    Not when the flush is only 5. Royal is correct.
