    4 BJ in a row

    I was playing at Spin palace and i got 4 BJ in a row at Vegas strip BJ (4 decks).Can someone tell me the probability for such outcome?
    Easier than a straight flush?

    Clearly the casino is rigged.

    Oh wait - you mean the PLAYER got 4 BJ's in a row. Well, then, no doubt about it, it's a fair casino.

    Probability of 1 BJ= 0.047566 so 4 in a row would be 0.047566^4=0.00000511901646 or 1 in 195,350.

    So about 22 times less likley than than a straight flush in JOB which would be the equivalent of about 3 BJ's in a row. (1 in 9,292 for 3 BJ's vs 1 in 9,019 for a Straight Flush.) In fact, alot more rare than a Royal Flush. (1 in about 38,000)

    Hope you were betting big

    Omg! Clayman. I never though that it's so rare.I was under the impression that the royal flush is 1 in about 700,000.
    I was betting $200 on every hand but.........it was fun mode
    I live. I rest. I am at peace. It is good

    OK - I see what you mean. I was doing the chances of ending up with those hands in a JOB VP game. But, using a 52 card deck, there are 2,598,960 possible 5-card combinations. 4 of these will be a Royal Flush and 36 of these will be a Straight Flush. So the chances are 1 in 649,740 and 1 in 72,193 respectively of being dealt these hands.

    "I was betting $200 on every hand but.........it was fun mode"

    You're killing me. Casinos are always fair in fun mode

    I had 4 BJ's in a row once, otherwise it was one of my worst sessions, I was completely wiped out.

    4 BJ in a row isn't so rare is it? I seem to see that a lot of the time.

    I got 4 BJ in a row once with good as gold. I was totally shocked. After that I was too scared to go back.
    Since then I only saw 3 BJ twice and that's it.

    The probability of 4 BJ in a row is about 1/200000, so it is pretty rare. I can't imagine that you see it very often. If you play 8 hours a day at 800 hands/hour (which is roughly the speed of autoplay on the fastest setting), you would expect to get 4 BJ in a row about once a month.
