Only thing better than getting a dealt royal is getting a dealt royal on a
multiline machine. Did you machine self hold all cards and lock up?
Congratulations.

I just got my first dealt royal!
I got one downtown LV on a prog. for the first time ever a couple weeks ago. It is weird that it also held, locked and paid immediately. Kind of anticlimactic haha.

Hardly. I've been dealt at least one royal on quarter Ten Play for $10,000. I've been dealt a single line royal on a $25 machine for $100,000.
Getting it on the multi-line was NOT better.

My machine locked up as soon as I hit deal and marked all the cards as held automatically. For a second I was puzzled, but then it dawned on me what had just happened.
I think the average plays for a dealt royal is something like 650,000 hands. I have definitely played more than 650,000 hands video poker outside of Pick'Em, but I still never imagined I would see a dealt royal.
On the other hand, I've probably played between four and five hundred thousand hands of Pick'Em and never got the royal in that game. I have had three Ace low straight flushes. However my wife's sister joined us in LV earlier this year and got a royal on one of the Pick'Em machines in the Fremont after playing less than a thousand hands. So you never know.
For me, that a lot of the fun of video poker. Regularly you see statistically improbable events happen. I've had a couple of dealt SF's . Even though they only pay off at a couple of 4OAK's, I still think it is cool when it happens.
