Bad beat jackpots

If you play poker, you have had your fair share of suck-outs and bad beats right? Probably enough to make you want to smash your monitor when the donk with 7-7 re-raises your pocket A-A and hits a two outer on the river when the 7 hits right?

Yes, we have all been there and see more of the same day after day. But what can you do when everything you make gets stuffed? One thing you can do is take advantage of your bad luck by playing where you can actually win more if you get beat. What? Win when you lose? Yes, that is exactly what you can do when you play at Absolute Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot tables!

Take advantage of that bad run and tell Lady Luck to kiss off, like LAMBDA716 did when he/she hit the jackpot on Saturday, February 20, 2010 and took down a whopping $81,872.24!

Do that just once and you can laugh at the donks for every odds bucking bad beat they put on you for the rest of your life! Hey if you are going to be unlucky, why not make the bad luck pay off big right? To do that, get over to Absolute Poker because right now the Bad Beat Jackpot is ready to hit and with over $305,000 in the pot, you could win some serious life changing, laugh at the donks money!

Sure other poker sites have Bad Beat Jackpots, but none are as big and legendary as the ones at Absolute Poker. And since they seem to hit at least twice a week, you have a good chance of scoring some jackpot cash. And you don’t even have to be the bloody victim to get some cash either because when the Jackpot is hit, 50% goes to the loser of the hand, 25% goes to the winner of the hand and $1000 goes to each of the other players at the table. The remainder is doled out with 25% going towards the next Bad Beat Jackpot, 10% going into Absolute Poker’s coffers and the rest is spread out among all other players who were playing the same game type and stakes.

Here is how you can be eligible for the Bad Beat Jackpot:
• Play at a Texas Hold’em designated Jackpot or Turbo Jackpot cash table
• Participate in the hand that a Jackpot rake was collected
• Use both of your hole cards
• Lose with quad 8's or better

If you are at the table when the Bad Beat Jackpot is awarded, you can qualify for the $1000 bonus if you were dealt in the hand. What another Bad Beat story you will have if you take a break and are sitting out when the Jackpot is cracked – so make sure your breaks are short ones!

And if you aren’t playing at the Bad Beat table, you can still qualify for your share of the cash that is awarded to all players at the other tables. If you are playing at a Hold’em Jackpot or Turbo Jackpot table of the same stakes and game type – you win! As long as you played in the hand and weren’t out feeding the dog, you win some cash too! What that means in simple terms is; if you are playing in a $1/$2 Limit Hold’em game at a Jackpot table and the Jackpot is hit at another $1/$2 LHE Jackpot table – you win! But in the same respect, if you are playing NLH when the Jackpot hits at that $1/$2 LHE table, you wouldn’t win a players share. But since Absolute Poker makes it so easy to Multi-Table, why not play several games at once and give yourself even more chances to score a Jackpot?
