You��ll Want Bad Beats at GGPoker With The New Bad Beat Jackpot
Table Of Contents
Every poker player has endured a bad beat during their career. Nobody enjoys being on the wrong side of a bad beat, but that is all set to change thanks to the GGPoker��s Bad Beat Jackpot.
A Bad Beat Jackpot is exactly what it sounds like: it is a jackpot payment that triggers when some unfortunate soul suffers a horrendous bad beat. The Bad Beat Jackpot at GGPoker gives you a chance to make up for a hurtful loss by rewarding you with a potentially huge payout.
The current GGPoker Bad beat Jackpot tips the scales at more than $1.326 million and it continues growing until one lucky, or should that be unlucky, player triggers it. The jackpot automatically triggers if someone loses with one of the following hands:
| Hold��em + Rush & Cash Holdem | PLO + Rush & Cash PLO | PLO5 | Short Deck |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quads deuces or better | Quad jacks or better | Quad jacks or better | Quad jacks or better |
The hand must go to showdown for the Bad beat Jackpot to trigger. Furthermore, both the winner and the loser must use both hole cards (two hole cards for PLO/PLO5) to make the best five-card hand combination. This means pocket pairs are required for winners and loser��s four of a kind holdings.
You can still use the Run It Multiple Times feature but only the fiirst run counts towards the jackpot.
