...although the second I've hit in less than six months.

I made a Royal Flush on PokerStars tonight (note that the odds listed on Wikipedia for being dealt any given hand are, I think, for Five-Card Draw but it's still extremely rare - in all the poker I've watched on TV for example (and it's a lot - and just about ever variant you can think of that's played seriously), I've only ever seen one RF - at the 2007 World Series of Poker).
