Look at it this way! If you hold the AT and you get the 3 intermediate cards in the right place, you will be estatic, if you only hold the A and the other 3 come up in order, oh well?
Assuming you will get a royal (conditional probability) there are 3X2X1 way for those 3 cards to fit in the middle thus 1/6 of the time that you get a royal with the A -10 on the outside will it be sequential (remember this is only if you get the royal) as from the get go the chance of a sequential in either direction is 1/60 (assuming again you get the royal) but you all know what assume means -FTWD (for those who don't) assume = ass u me -This is one case where the psychological play might be better than the mathematical play? I know when there are runners at the corners (1st and 3rd) I go for the hit (i.e., A-10 either direction on the outside) I play for it.
If I have misse danything please let me know. Thanks

When I wanted to determine the required strategy changes for the
sequential royals at Circus Circus (aces and eights) I used Wolf
Video Poker (WVP). You can download it and try it for free at
