I'm thinking this would be quad Aces with another RF card dealt. Hold the quads and fill each of the 3 draws with AWAK, then the two-card Royal fills on each of the six bonus hands for a total of 9 x 4K = 36K.

The probability of such a thing occurring is "left as an exercise for the student."

Also I think it would be neat and Vegas-like if this ever happened for the two knights to rock out to something like this.

I get about 1 in 41.6 quintillion. Or for people that forgot what a quintillion is:

1 in 41,608,332,100,000,000,000

Dealt aces with king through ten: 1 in 2,598,960 / 16 = 1 in 162,435

Turning all of them into aces w/kicker:
1 in (47/12)^3 = 1 in 60.08275

Converting first three royal hunts:
1 in 16,215^3 = 1 in 4,263,348,738,375

Last three royal hunts, automatically awarded.

Multiply those three numbers together to get the final answer.

Hey OP, I am guessing from your name you're from Minnesota. I saw this game in the wild at Grand Casino Mille Lacs if you're interested!
