Hey PLaw, I have a poker question for you. You'll probably think, "yea right", but this actually happened and I want to know if I was given the right answer. Probably the only sports-type question I'll ever ask.

Years ago, in my twenties, I had weekly poker games; penny ante stuff. If you won $25 that was a good night. :p

Anyway, we were playing 5 card draw poker. Myself and another person both got a Royal Flush believe it or not. We weren't sure who won so I called this guy that was into almost every sport and good at poker. He said that when that happens it goes by suit. If I remember correctly I had the RF in diamonds and the other person in spades, and he said spades got it. Also, does the same hold true to any flush or straight if the are exactly the same?

Geez, probably the only time in my life I'll have that problem to worry about.
