You only win if you lose with 4 of a kind Jacks?
And the chances of that happening are 100000000000000000000000-1

Aye, but imagine if it did happen! I think most sites classify a bad beat as 4 of a kind Jacks or better losing.. Or does anyone know of any sites that offer a lower qualification requirement? e.g. a hefty full house Aces full of Kings maybe?

I mentioned it on the other thread but PPP lowest hand requirement to be beat was Aces full of kings but it being like that menat it was won more often. I dont think there bad beat bonuses were progressive either. I am sure they had set bonuses for different cash stakes I think the lowest being on the 25/50 cent tables

I was thinking about this last night and at first thought the hand requirements are near on impossible that being said the bonus will ultimately be staggering when it is won like that record one of $800,000.

What cash stake tables will this be on Matt 50/1 or something like 1/2

I predict it will start off slow as no one will want to pay the extra rake to win a low jackpot but as soon as it starts to build people will be jumping in them left right and centre.

I also predict this will be won with a hi st8 flush over low st8 flush

Gotta use both your hole cards so youd have to have like 8 9 10h, with JQh vs 67h. I think id rather walk into quad Jacks. I think Ive beaten quad Jacks with a Straight Flush before. The only time i got a royal i had Q10dd and a guy had KK and hit the quads on turn at same time I made ze Royal. He was piiiiiiiiissed.

We can imagine if it did happen, but I don't think it will somehow!

Will this be across Boss or PCUK specific?

I was actually sat in a hand a couple of years ago on Interpoker when AA felted JJ on a AJJxA board and took a share of their Bad Beat Jackpot - wasn't much though, just a couple of hundred dollars, though the JJ won about $4k iirc.

It's Boss network-wide, and starts on 15th December on specially designated tables.
