merlinsteele Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 I can't believe that last night I actually got a royal flush playing video poker. I was only playing $100s and if I remember right, I think I got $250,000! Has anyone else done this? Also, this morning I went back up to that real high spot just west of my CJ's airport, and noticing this little track-like thing, sort of like a bridge that hangs over the river running north and south. I couldn't jump it even with a 900 motorcycle, and then I got a Bullet, and equipped it with nitrous. Right before the jump as I was hauling ass, I hit the nitrous, and it was the coolest jump I've ever seen! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon. Posted September 17, 2005 Share Posted September 17, 2005 Woah, you got a Royal Flush? I never knew how to play poker, San Andreas taught me how to . I don't think I've quite mastered the game though, I need more practice. I don't think I've ever seen the jump your talking about, I love to stunt out in the country more than the city .

Carrotfoot Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 I dont know how to play poker or blackjack. btw, where was that video of the guy doing that ramp but he gets hit by a plane? Blackjack is probably the easiest game in the casino, apart from the roulette. Try and get 21, if you go over, you lose! Off-Topic: And about that video, someone has to dig that up please! I can just imagine that in my mind... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kremit Posted September 18, 2005 Share Posted September 18, 2005 yea, blackjack is probably the most easiest to play.... Ace = one or eleven points Face cards = ten points Number cards = number value in points "Hit" will give you an extra card to add to the points you've got already. If you exceed 21 points, you "bust" and forfeit that hand. "Stand" will hold your hand with the value of points you've accumulated thus far in the hand. "Split" and "Double Down" are my two fav's. Mainly cause you have to re-bet whatever you bet originally, but can double your profits as well. Both of these cannot be possible if you've already "hit" on the hand you were dealt. Either of these two actions must be performed based on the two cards you're originally dealt in the hand. "Split" can only be performed only when the original two cards you were dealt are the same. IE: Two 7's or Two Kings.. You cannot split 1 King and 1 Queen, even tho they are worth 10 points each, they are still different cards. A split will split your hand in half and you'll get two more cards from the dealer. This is essentially now like playing two hands of blackjack at once. You can hit on each hand an try your best at 21 for each hand. Each hand is it's own seperate identity... so if you "push" on one hand and win with the other, you still come out a head. If you win on one hand, loose on the other, it's considered an overall "push". "Double Down" is very similar to a hit. Only differences is the card is dealt to you face down so no one at the table knows what you have... Also, prevents you from hitting any more in that hand. Double Downs are usually best between 10-12 points dealt on the original hand. If you have 10 and double down and are dealt an Ace, you have 21... If you have 11 and double down and are dealt an Ace, you have 12 and are unable to hit again. Of course, if you bust on a double down, you still loose. Finally, a "push" is when you and the dealer have the same value hand and there is not a definitive winner. Also, a "bust" is if you exceed 21 points in one hand, and will forfeit your game. Heh, sorry, I live in vegas, so I must educate.... Anywho, interesting topic for the weekend I've had. I don't do much gambling because I live here in this city. Gambling is more for the visitors and tourists... as well as the locals with too much money to know what to do with. All I know is, this city wasn't built on people winning at gambling... so I'll only use pocket change or small denominational bills. Friday I went out to lunch and decided to play $10 on dueces wild poker... but first I wanted to play a lil blackjack. After about five minutes of blackjack, I cashed out with my $10 and played dueces wild. Kept getting 3 of a kinds and would win my bet back... a few four of a kinds to put me ahead and some other random crap that would bring me closer to loosing my money. After not too long, I cashed out the machine with my first five of a kind (3 6's and 2 2's) and my first royal flush with dueces (doesn't pay as much as one without wild cards). I cashed out $40. A $30 profit... the only two pots higher than a royal flush w/ dueces is: A royal flush w/o dueces, and then the top daddy.... four dueces... Oh, and for those that don't know... dueces are 2's. I don't know... something about hitting it on a real machine IRL is much more rewarding than hitting it in the four dragons casino when CJ is already richer than he needs to be... but congrats on the royal nontheless, they're rare and far in few...

anus Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I don't know how to play Poker, but that must have been something big because it's called a 'Royal' Flush.

Kremit, Thanks for that guide, mate. I never knew how to play Blackjack, I saved it. np, glad it helped... as for poker, royal flush is the highest hand you could hold in the game. If you're holding one... bet the farm cause people can only match you... they cannot beat you. editted side note: Why do they not have craps in SA? I would love that... and would play it a LOT more than any of the other gambling games except maybe blackjack... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
