    In Response to Re: Race to the Royal Flush : Yeah, I've double and triple checked this and, unless I'm missing something glaringly obvious, it should still stand!  Afterall, it is a percentage so we could just be getting lucky, it is possible there could never be a Royal flush dealt again... Time will tell, perhaps we'll have a dry period later in the competition to even it out, who knows?

    Surely there should be some runner up prizes each week Sky Sam? Like some lucky 7 seats.....primo seats......roller seats...etc etc

    Got one on the Monday 9th, but only just saw this promotion hiding in the bottom corner of the home page.... still managed to balls it up... believe it is already been claimed but wanted to show I can get lucky once in a while. Hand ID 540159866.

    How about a competition for the first person in a week to be have A-A beaten by 7-2?

    Sorry gaga87, we're only paying one per week at the moment.

    It's Monday so the competition is open again! Have we had any Royal Flushes yet?!

    Nice try but you need to be holding 2 cards out of the 5 as your hole cards!!

    Competition still open!

    I was involved in a pot just after midnight on Monday morning where the board contained AKQ of clubs, and the winner held TJ.  

    If I posted the hand id would you give him the prize, or does he have to post it himself.

    (I tried to tell him about this prize in the chatbox, but I'm not sure if he understood what I meant.)

    In Response to Race to the Royal Flush:
    Hi Everyone, Have you ever had a royal flush? We get on average one Royal Flush for every 318,000 hands dealt on Sky Poker. this is about 1 every 2 days. Now is the time to start hunting those illusive Royal Flushes. Why? We have a new competition running here on Sky Poker. ' Race to the Royal Flush' sees YOU, the community, race against each other to win your way into the SPT Grand Final . Here's how it works.. If you're dealt the first  (and only) Royal Flush of the week (starting every Monday) you will be rewarded with an SPT Semi Final seat on a night of your choice for the following week. You MUST post your Royal Flush (including the HAND ID) in this thread and we will verify your hand and enter you into the SPT Semi on the night of your choice. Rules: - Only the first Royal Flush each week will be credited. If someone gets a Royal Flush on Monday at 00:03, the competition will be on 'cooldown' until the following Monday when the race begins again. - You must hold 2 of the cards that make up the Royal Flush as your hole cards. - Excludes Omaha. That's it, get to the tables and join the race!

    Hi Sam
    Thanks for getting back to me!
    Could you tell me how long it is running for and what the dates and times would be.
    If I should be lucky enough to get through where would the final be held.
    Thanks Keef

    Hi Keef,

    As you got your Royal Flush yesterday, you can pick any day NEXT WEEK to play in the SPT Semi. (Mon 30th July - Sun 5th Aug).

    You can see all the details of the SPT Grand Final on the promotion page here: 


    TLDR: Next up it's the Grand Final at the Dusk Till Dawn casino in Nottingham on the 8th & 9th September!
