Most poker rooms have a Bad Beat Jackpot that adds an extra excitement to the cash games.
The Jackpot pool could be shared as follows:
|
Losing Hand |
40% |
|
Winning Hand |
20% |
|
All players dealt cards split |
20% |

If three or more players fulfill the requirements in the same pot, the two highest hands count as winning/losing hands.
Please observe:
• The BBJ can not be won at FunMoney tables, heads up tables, tournament tables,
2-7 Triple Draw tables, €0.02/€0.04 tables or €0.05/€0.10 tables.
• The requirements to win the Bad Beat Jackpot are subject to change without
further notice. Any changes will be posted on this page.
• The Bad Beat Jackpot is calculated from the rake. We reserve the right to void
winnings from the Bad Beat Jackpot if it is obvious that a team has been playing
without contributing to the rake by normal play just to chase the Jackpot.
