A tough poker question this week. Let’s dive straight in
i think its more luckily to win the loto personally anyone got any input?
if your playing video poker for example - people hit royal flushes all the time -
you have a much better shot at hitting a royal flush on a video poker machine than you do hitting the lottery - now a royal flush is only gonna pay 1,000 on a quarter machine or 4000 on a 1.00 machine
assuming you are hitting a lottery - most state lotteries go into the thousands of dollars and most multistate jackpots like powerball or megamillions start at 10 or 15 Million Dollars
Hence its alot easier to hit a royal flush than win the lottery
If you are speaking of playing at a poker table of say texas hold em or omaha or similar games - the odds are longer of getting a royal flush - but you will probably get one before you win the powerball
Good Luck

Why would people jump to the conclusion of thinking it’s the royal flush? Mathematically, it’s much harder to win the lottery, and unless you have the bank to sit in million dollar cash games, it’s always more profitable.

No one with any brain power thinks its easier to win the lottery than get a royal flush.

There will always be people who do stupid things like assume that getting a royal flush is more difficult than winning the lottery. There are some people out there who even spell the word "lucky" wrong twice in two different ways in the same paragraph.
It is much easier to get a royal flush than it is to win the lotto. I suppose that means that a person who wins the lotto is luckier than someone who just got a royal flush.
