After already breaking the Bad Beat Jackpot world record earlier this year with almost $1,200,000 for the beat (paying out $417,396 to one New York student), CarbonPoker’s healthiest Jackpot is on the move again.
At close to ¾ of a million bucks, the BBJ is getting heavy and starting to bulge at the seams. At the time of writing this, the jackpot was sitting at $728,036.82. Whoa.
How it Pays Out
If you’re playing on a Bad Beat table at CarbonPoker and lose with a hand of Quad 7’s or better, the Jackpot goes off.
Chips will literally be falling from the ceiling of the poker client.
Breakdown of Payment Structure
- 35% to the Happy “Loser”
- 20% to Reseeding the Jackpot (we’ve got to keep it going!)
- 17.5% to the Still Happy “Winner” (the guy who beat your quads, or got a higher straight flush, etc)
- 17.5% to Other Very Happy Players (must be deal in, not sitting out)
- 10% to Merge Gaming
Now, I’m not an advocate of hoping-to-lose, but for this it really seems worthwhile. Next time you’re coming into a showdown with an absolute monster, you just might be hoping to see something better.
