    <SPAN>This happened during the new jackpots UB is still giving out but I never received anything for it.
    Just glad I hit it during this big cash game against some fellow P5ers!</SPAN><TT>

    XHLbiz,

    Did you win this right after another royal at the same table? There was a post at 2 + 2 the other day that had two hand histories in a row with royal flushes at the same table. It seemed pretty incredible. When looking at the hand histories I noticed quite a few P5ers sitting at the table and was going to post about it but I was at work and got busy. I had forgotten about it until reading this now. Even without the jackpot it's still nice to get a royal. My one and only royal was at UB and I didnt' get a jackpot either :(
