I calculated the odds of being dealt a sequential royal at 38,984,400.
Can anyone confirm this to be accurate? My math - total possible
combinations of any hand in sequential order 52*51*50*49*48=311,875,200
divided by total combinations of sequential royals(8)

I think you're off by a factor of 2. There are only 4 T-A sequential
royals, not 8.
Another way to get this is by multiplying the probability of a dealt
royal (1/649,740) by the probability that a RF is a T-A sequential
(1/120) which turns out to be 1/77,968,800.
Most likely a once in a lifetime event for just about any VP player.
It was a good thing whoever it was had a camera!

Too bad this wasn¹t on one of those ³Sequential Royal² machines, though.
Not that I¹d be complaining...
