All I can say from "experience" is hitting the 4 straight flushes is EASIER than hitting that ROYAL! Been two months since I hit a Royal. I even tried the bingo card on the 1c jacks 50 play for 3 hours. I still needed ONE straight flush and the Royal! I got bored and moved to the 10 play jacks. Lost of course, as usual.
Last month on all my cards, I needed the Royal to complete the card.
Card is worth about 1/2 if you don't hit that Royal, no not entirely worthless.

I never had to make straight flushes. Sounds brutal. This is the way this simple sucker would have to do it. Let me know if I'm wrong in case I ever run into it again.
