so there's $15 on the line and a player claims to have the top 3 spots. Each game submitted as a winner contained a maxed out game timer and a royal flush.
In this game, players form 5-card poker hands from a 5×4 grid using a single 52-card deck. To max out the timer, a player must complete every hand type — from pair through straight flush — in order, and then finish with a royal flush using adjacent cards. The odds of this happening in a single game are roughly 1 in 2,400. Claiming it happened three times during a 3-day tournament would require playing over 7,000 games — yet the total number of games played by all users is only 9,100. Statistically, the odds of this happening by chance are around 1 in 100 million — less likely than flipping a coin and getting heads 27 times in a row, or randomly guessing a full 9-digit number on your first try. In a system with thousands of total plays, seeing this outcome even once would be remarkable — three times is beyond the bounds of normal probability.
I'm not crazy to tell them they're full of shit, right? 5 replies
