Progressive Bad Beat Jackpot Qualifying Hands and Promotion Rules
- To qualify for the Jackpot:
- The losing hand must contain Four-of-a Kind, 8's or better.
- Four or more Players must be dealt into the hand.
- The hand must be a raked hand and the Jackpot contribution is collected
from the hand.
- The best hand of the winner and the loser must include both the hole
cards, and the hand must go to a showdown.
- The Jackpot contribution is only collected once during a hand.
- The value of the Jackpot contribution is $0.50. Once the rake has reached $1.00,
an additional $0.50 is taken for the Bad Beat Progressive.
- The Jackpot contribution is displayed as a separate rake chip stack, to the right
of the normal rake chip stack, on the chip tray.
- Jackpot contributions are accumulated until the Jackpot is won.
- The current Bad Beat Jackpot value is displayed in the Lobby and on every Jackpot
table.
- The Bad Beat Jackpot applies to specified tables only. Players must be seated at
one of these tables and actively participate in the hand to qualify for any payouts.
- Players can qualify for the table share of the Jackpot if they were dealt into the
hand but folded before the showdown.
- If the minimum number of Players does not participate in the hand, the hand does
not qualify for the progressive and the progressive rake is not taken.
- If there are more than two hands involved in a Bad Beat in a hand, then the two
highest hands are considered for the Jackpot. The higher of the two hands is the
winning hand and the other hand wins the Bad Beat.
- In the event that two qualifying Jackpot hands occur at the same time, the hand
that is completed first is awarded the Bad Beat Jackpot.
- Players must play their hands independently. Players cannot tell opponents what
to do or to reveal their hand to other Players. Any contravention of this will result
in the hand being disqualified for the Jackpot.
The Jackpot Prize Pool will work as follows:
- The percentage payout of the Jackpot is as follows:
- 70% is distributed as winnings:
- 50% to the losing hand, the Bad Beat
- 25% to the winner of the hand
- 25% evenly split between the other Players who actively participated
in the hand
- 20% is used to seed the next Jackpot
- 10% is used for administration
