I recently decided to look up the stats of Royal Flush to see how consistent the abilties were, since they seemed to be stronger than LB, and I wanted to see if the risk was balanced out.

So in a typical deck distribution of 17-14-11-8, Royal Flush will average 6. This was a surprise to me, since most Royal Flush activate at 5/6, with few going so far as 7, which means that it was quite consistent.

And then I did the same distrubution with the Flush assist, and the average rose to a startling 8.4. That means that Royal Flush was pretty much guarnteed for most abilities.

I'm curious, was Royal Flush intentional suppossed to be this consistent, or was it meant to be a more risk for more reward ability that was closer to a 50/50 success rate instead of a 80/20?
