Bad Beat Jackpot
You feel like screaming. You claw at your hair in agony. You've just
lost a huge pot to a really bad suck out. You just took a really Bad
Beat. Though instead of the agony and frustration...what if there was
cash. Lots of cash. More cash than you could count.
Well if you're playing on the listed bad beat tables at VIP Poker your worst bad beat may become the best hand you ever play with the massive Bad Beat Jackpot. In any Texas Hold'em
game, you will be looking to maximise your value when you pick up
Quads. The chance to go all-in is automatic, but what happens if your
opponent is holding higher Quads, or even a Straight Flush?
These are the worst of the Bad Beats, though with the Bad Beat Jackpot, these hands could see you pocketing thick wads of cash.
The jackpot is seeded by taking 50 cents from every pot on the specially labelled ring game
tables. As soon as a player has a monster hand cracked, the jackpot
will be won, with every active player at the table receiving a portion
of the prize money! The player with the losing hand will pick up the
biggest percentage, so if you have Quad sevens or better using both
hole cards, you should definitely hope to get beaten!
