Ah, It's a Tote/Kitty Bet.

The throw a Euro on a box each game & if you hit a royal, you collect 100% of the pool. I think the chain of casinos are all linked.

I was at the casino when someone got.....I think it was a straight flush for 10%, cant really remember.

I tend to avoid those tables, they eat away at your chips.

Correct, a sf is 10%. You have to put the $1 in the bonus bet or else you don't get it if it hits.
