Bad Beat Jackpot

You can’t believe it. You can’t believe it happened to you. You want to scream at the top of your lungs “Why Me?”. You’ve just lost a massive pot to a totally bad suck out. What was dealt to you was a totally Bad Beat. But what if instead of screaming at the top of your lungs and the total shock of loss, there was cash. Tons of it. More than you thought was winnable.
 
At GR88.com, if you’re playing the bad beat tables, your worst bad beat can become the best hand you’ve ever played with the huge Bad Beat Jackpot. If any Texas Hold’em game, you look to maximize your value when you pick up Quads. The opportunity to go all-in is automatic, but what happens if your opponent is holding higher Quads, or worse, a straight flush?
 
These are the worst of the bad beats, but with the Bad Beat Jackpot, the worst of the bad beats could see you winning huge wads of cash.
 
The Bad Beat Jackpot is seeded by taking 50 cents from every pot on the specially labeled ring game tables. Once a player has a monster hand cracked, the Bad Beat Jackpot will be won, with every active player at the table receiving a portion of the prize money! The player holding the losing hand gets the biggest percentage of the pot, so if you’re holding Quad sevens or even better, using both hold cards, start hoping to be a loser!
