Extra Time: Neymar shows off rare poker hand... and €92,601 winnings



The Barcelona forward landed an incredibly rare royal straight flush during an online game on the same day he returned to training after missing two weeks with a case of mumps 





Neymar may have been laid low with mumps for the past two weeks but his love of poker remains undimmed... and just hours after returning to Barcelona training he was showing off his skills at the table.

The Brazil international, an ambassador for PokerStars who regularly posts pictures of him and friends enjoying a game on Instagram, landed an incredibly rare royal straight flush, earning him a pot of over €17,000.

That took his total winnings for the game to €92,601 - not that he's struggling for money!

The chances of coming up with a royal straight flush are said to be 0.00000154%, so more likely than Neymar joining Manchester United this summer. [GOAL]
