[Closed] How many of you have given in to the temptation of chasing a Royal/Straight Flush draw?

When the odds/ev are clearly against you...

Guilty as charged.

Or are some of you machines that never blink twice at folding.

Edit: Had a few close calls... hasn't come yet :(
-ev stacking up.

No, because its -ev to chase. Once you've had a few it's not such a big deal, aslong as you have the winning hand then its all good ;) I've only had 4 royals.

No because I usually dont notice them. I also fold small straight flushes on regular basis fearing bigger flush or full house. Generally I'm an idiot, so... See ya at the tables!

Yup when I've got 4 to the Royal Flush I've even called, when I should have bet/raised, so as not to frighten the opponent off and see that final card.

Over it now though ;)

300K hands in total got 3, all in the same week and 2 in the same session! So I don't expect to see another one soon :(


Before I had the only royal I saw, I was chasing them but not like every time.Now I just play by the odds


I never called anything crazy.. but yea the feeling next card could be the one is good =) so maybe i gave up few big blinds =)

I would check all the way if there was a jackpot bonus or something like that
