I wonder what the chances of this is, really small, never ever gotten a royal flush before. I tried to pull as much money out of them as possible, my hope was that that StayPuft or maybe bonethug110 would reraise or go all in, in case he had AA or AK or just the flush. Any other suggestions how to pull in more money to the pot, maybe reraising his 1$ bid?

Value bet the river. Most people aren't calling unless they have a Queen or a flush... and even if they did, it wasn't the nut flush (which you had)

And since you had a queen, that means at most, two people have a queen. You need to do a bet on the turn and a value bet on the river to really get any more money

but anyway, nice hand and congrats on the royal flush :) I'm still yet to get mine!

I've had two royals in the last week. Both of them on 4th street. The second one with both my hole cards involved.

I recently Flopped the Royal Flush on Party Poker...first ever (holding 2). If I hit it at my local casino it's a couple of Grand Jackpot.
