November has come and gone. The turkey was stuffed, leftovers have been pillaged and football was watched.
There’s just one more thing to do before we fully dive into December: play the Turkey Grand Slam.
This Saturday, December 5th, the top 128 players on the Turkey Grand Slam Leaderboard will face off in a unique starting stack heads up tournament. The best part? The jackpot is going to weigh in at a hefty $28,995. Over $28K was built up over the month from a meager seed of $2,500 from CarbonPoker.
As you know, half the funds from the special Turkey SnGs kept building up this massive total. Nicely done, guys.
Congrats to the top 5 finishers in the Leaderboard. They’re definitely favorites to win, but it a tourney like this, anything can happen.

Spoiler alert: EVERYBODY that makes the top 128 will win something.
Result Jackpot Payout
The CarbonPoker Bad Beat Jackpot as once again paid out! This is the third time in 1 month.
We know with the lowest qualifier online (Quad 7s or better losing), our Jackpot would be more frequent, but lately the RNGs have been dealing up bad beats at a frantic pace.
Just this morning, starterkit‘s Queen High Straigh Flush bested GLADIATOR8791‘s Quad 8s in a hand with a $23 pot on one of our Bad Beat Jackpot Tables. You know the rest.
$42,633.32 was awarded to GLADIATOR8791 and starterkit’s bankroll was padded with an additional $21,316.66. A slice of $3,045.23 was handed out to the remaining 7 players at the table — proving once again that losing can be profitable. CarbonPoker is the home of Bad Beats lately.
Because the Jackpots have gone off so often lately, these guys weren’t close to our $1.2Million Bad Beat Jackpot payout, but I’m sure they’ll still take it.
As usual, the Jackpot has been reseeded and is already growing. Check it out on the Homepage to see it increase in real time.
For the third time this year, the Bad Beat Jackpot has gone off and paid out. Want to hear about over $600K in poker payouts? Read on!
In the wee hours of the morning, WhiteCSix’s Royal Flush beat baseball127′s straight flush on one of Carbon’s Bad Beat Tables.
As the loser of the hands, baseball127 cleaned up with a staggering $211,758.31. WhiteCSix’s Royal Flush was good for 6 figures as well, totaling $105,879.15. Decent, right?
As for the players that smartly got out of the way, they all earned $15,125.59. For just. sitting. there. /logs on to poker account… /plays hands… /hopes for $15K.
As you probably know, CarbonPoker has the lowest qualifier of any Bad Beat Jackpot online. Only Quad 7s or better need to be beaten for the bonus to payout. The guys playing last night, however, weren’t messing around and decided to show down with two of the biggest hands in poker.
If you missed out on the jackpot, don’t worry! The BBJ has been reseeded and currently sits at a sizable $125K. Sure, that’s less than baseball127 took down himself, but the Bad Beat Jackpot has a way of getting up there when you least expect it.
Earlier this year, we had a World Record payout of $1.2Million and another one of almost $750K. It seems that CarbonPoker just loves giving away cash.
Congrats on tbe big wins, guys. If you’re looking to make an investment… I know this really great blogger with a lot of big ideas… Just let me know.
One of the most popular side games at CarbonPoker is Caribbean Stud poker, and this is why:
Early this morning, the Caribbean Stud jackpot paid off CarbonPoker player, ZuluTime.
At about 3am, ZuluTime won $30,437.63 on the $1 Caribbean Stud Table as his Royal Flush beat the dealer’s pair of Kings. This game only took 7 seconds. Caribbean Stud is quick and easy. If you beat the qualified dealer’s hand, you win your wager — and if you’ve played the jackpot bet, you’re eligible for that.
It sure pays off the play the jackpot, right?
The Caribbean Stud tables get a lot of action, and all of that helps increase the jackpot payout. The jackpot has already been re-seeded and is waiting for the next lucky winner.
Here’s the jackpot structure:
Royal Flush – 100%
Straight Flush – 10%
Four of a Kind – $100
Full House – $75
Flush – $50
Congrats to ZuluTime for the major win. CarbonPoker has paid out some big time jackpots. Two Bad Beats and numerous, smaller Caribbean Stud jackpots have been triggered. If you want in on the action, you’ve gotta hit the tables!
Due to the fact that one can win a fortune in just one hand of play, everyone wants to win Carbon Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot. At the time of this writing, the Jackpot is sitting at $281,095 and is only going to get bigger! Seeing as how there is so much money to be won in the Bad Beat Jackpot, it’s definitely worth coming up with a plan of attack for winning this cash.
The important thing to remember when going for the Jackpot is that you’re going to have to play a lot more drawing hands. This means that you should be playing nearly every pair of suited connectors you receive as well as many of the low pocket pairs that come around. However, you should keep in mind that the suited connectors are even more crucial because the percentages show players are more likely to win the Bad Beat Jackpot with a straight flush as opposed to a 4-of-a-kind. Plus it’s really easy for players to get caught up in constantly looking for that seemingly elusive fourth card.
But this doesn’t mean that you should avoid playing for the 4-of-a-kind though because these hands are crucial in maximizing your chances at the Bad Beat Jackpot. Low pocket pairs can especially be valuable when you get the chance to see the flop, and even turn, cheaply!
Remember though that you don’t want to fall into the trap of trying to go for a lot of backdoor 4-of-a-kinds and straight flushes when the flop misses you entirely. For instance, a lot of players will get caught up in paying to see the turn when they need two cards for a 4-of-a-kind or straight flush. The odds of hitting these hands at this point are pretty slim so it’s best to wait until a better flop comes around next time.
