[See Grit. See Grit shuffling a deck of cards.]
So, here's some poker curiosity for you all. What are your odds of a royal flush?
[He continues to shuffle the deck, not taking his eyes off of the camera.]
For those of ya who ain't in the know, or are kids... royal flush is when you get all cards of the same suit that go from ten to ace. Ten, Jack, Queen, King, Ace. It's the best hand in Poker. Nothin' beats it. ...Minus a fist to the face. Cause that beats all hands.
[He stops shuffling and places the cards on the table.]
Now, followin' odds in Texas Hold 'em, one of the more popular varieties of the game now a days... [He starts to deal the deck out, two cards for himself.] With a mix of the two cards you get, and the five on the table, you'll see it 'bout once every 30,940 hands on average.
[So he does the deal. Tossing one card, and laying, face down, three.] However, even rarer is if all five cards on the table flash the lucky cards. That's somethin' you'll only see every 649,740 hands. That's on average too. Those are some pretty bad [He tosses another card, and lays down one. and then tosses another, and lays down the last card. For five on the table.
When he does flip them all up, the five cards on the table show a clubs royal flush. He has two other aces in his hand.]
Jus' goes to show you that miracles do happen, even for gamblers.
