Earlier this month, we heard about the lucky person who won a life-changing jackpot at a Minnesota casino while playing a slot machine. Today, we’re learning about another mega-payout—this time, the winner was playing cards.
In most poker games, a Royal Flush is the best possible hand. According to the Poker Probability page on Wikipedia, the odds of getting a Royal Flush (Ace, King, Queen, Jack, and 10 of the same suit) are 1 in 649,740.
