My wife and I have been playing video poker together for about 15 years.
We travel to either Vegas, Reno/Tahoe, or New Orleans about 6 times each year from our home in a non gambling state (SC), and stay for anywhere from 3 to 14 days each trip.
We've each been dealt a Royal Flush once.
In my wife's case it happened at The Hyatt Grand Lodge in Incline Village, NV on a $1 progressive single line machine playing DW for just over $8,000.
In my case it happened at Harrahs New Orleans, also on a single line $1 progressive machine for just over $6,000.
My dealt Royal was a sequential Royal in Spades playing DDB. Unfortunately I wasn't playing on a machine that paid a premium for a sequential Royal.
Neither of us has ever gotten a Royal on the redraw after discarding all 5 cards.
As an aside, I was playing on a triple play Quick Quads machine at the M in Vegas last week and was dealt four to the Royal. On the redraw I hit two Royals. I know that's not that terribly rare, but it surely was an unexpected and pleasant surprise.

Catherine: was this Royal a dealt Royal or a redraw Royal?
