Poker players at the Playground Poker Club in Kahnawake, Quebec had plenty to be excited about this past Wednesday when a record-breaking poker Bad Beat Jackpot was won at a low-stakes table. All poker players in the building received a share but those at the winning table acquired the most of $2,590,185 CAD (about $1.94 million USD). The Bad Beat Jackpot will now be reset at $700,000.00.

Don't you wish you were there? :)

What an unique situation and a lovely result.

Do I understand the table in the news correctly that you also have to loose with the right quads in the corresponding week?

So if you loose with quads of aces, it has to be in week 1-4 to receive the jackpot? 🤔

The required hand strength to "win" (lose) the BB hand starts at AA and decreases every three weeks. The chart is here:

EDIT: it goes down every THREE weeks

Wow.
Black Pocket 10's is my favourite Texas Hold'em hand,
2nd favourite 10Clubs & any other 10,
3rd favourite any other pocket 10's.

It’s the second enormous bad beat jackpot to be hit at the Playground Poker Club. In June of last year, one worth $1.7 million American was hit at another low-stakes table. And strangely enough, the loser also held pocket 10s against a red six-to-10 straight flush — only it was hearts and not diamonds.

I wonder if the other jackpot, mentioned above, involved BLACK pocket 10's.
And, wow again.

The guys were really lucky. All I can do is congratulate them. And be jealous.
