I have had bigger VP jackpots, but this was a 10-way that I had once...

Billyjoe, what game (and/or machine) is this from?   I am curious only because the coloration and layout seems to suggest you were playing on a ALL STAR Poker machine, or 5 star variant, or something else....????     Either way, this is nice.....I have never been dealt a multiline royal....in fact I have NEVER EVER had a royal flush on  ANY multi line game in my entire life!     Not a one!!!      That's pathetic.......As for cheap beer, in college on Friday nights before hitting the ridiculously expensive bars all over Boston, my roommates and I would get a case of BUSCH or BUSCH Light (about 30-35% cheaper than Budweiser but obviously manufactured by the exact same company!)     We'd get our load on with the inexpensive stuff, that way we only had to purchase a few drinks sparingly at the bars, and it left more room (both money and drinking capacity) in case we met up with any decent chicks!     A lot of strategy went into teenage and college partying

This was in New Orleans a few years ago. I don't remember if it was an All Star, but it had TDB.

     Really neat pics. I like old beer ads. We didn't have either brand in the east. Somewhere, I do have an ole Schaefer foam scraper and other misc beer stuff. I remember when a pony glass of beer went from a nickel to a dime and we were all in shock. We shouldn't have complained because the same bar made free burgers for us in one of the old steamers. Those were great. Nothing like an old dark high back booth tavern on a hot summer day or when there was a good game or boxing match on. Only a few left in this area now.

Yeah its likely an all star machine with that color scheme Billyjoe. In my experience a lot of all star machines have better paytables than other multiline games in many casinos I've scouted. But not always of course.

I've had three delt Royal Flushes in a little over 10 years of play.  The first was $1,000, the second was $4,000 and the third was $62.50.   All were wonderful...

Way play 3 lines when you can play 100

Best I can remember on dealt Royals is 2 in 2001 on Double Down Stud. One dealt on job and one on the re draw on a 50 cent game at Mohegan about 10 years ago and none since. That none since represents let's see 20k hands a week average for the 10 years since another dealt one times 50 weeks a year is 10 million hands. I'm sure that is accurate to within ten percent. What an extreme since I am sure the probability of being dealt two on the same machine about 100k hands apart is fairly low and not getting dealt one in ten million hands is really low. Notice my none since wording. I originally typed nonsense and had to correct it. I think the first was was more appropriate.

Pretty funny. I can't come too close to that one. I did have a mini suit crew show up a couple of years ago too after helping a clueless slot attendant next to me. She had been slamming the machine door about 50 times trying to get it to lock with no success. By then I had a major headache from the slamming so I offered her my mini swiss army knife and flashlight and told her what part of the machine the problem was most likely in and where to shine the light. ( I had experienced hundreds of slamming incidents many times before. ) Anyway, they showed up with their own tools and suits, fixed the bent hinge rod in the inside, and left without saying a word to me. Sorry, I typed this on the wrong post. It was supposed to be on LL's post about the dropped money box and the suits that arrived.

The only dealt Royal, that I recall, was 2 - 3 years ago, during the last week that Harrahs was in STL. Playing Double STP, 25 cent, 3 line. Dealt heart Royal, 12 deals later, dealt 3 hearts to the RF and hit the middle line.
