New Absolute Poker jackpot

Posted in Gambling News, Poker by Diana Sterling

AbsolutePoker.com innovative Bad Beat Jackpot continues to attract action and bail out bad beat victims, with the latest poker payout being to an online poker player who lost a Texas Hold Em hand with quad Aces, hitting the highest Bad Beat Jackpot yet and winning over $160 000 in cash.

“With nearly one million poker hands dealt since the last hit on July 3rd, our Bad Beat Jackpot had climbed to over $464 000,” commented David Clainer, senior vice president for Absolute Poker. “Online poker players flooded the site in record numbers for a shot at winning an unfathomable amount of cash just by losing a hand.”

At most online poker rooms and land-based casinos, a loss like that would be disappointing to say the least, but not on this occasion. The player was seated at one of Absolute Poker’s Bad Beat Jackpot tables where if a player loses a hand holding four 8s or anything better at a Bad Beat Jackpot table, he or she hits the Bad Beat jackpot. To help the jackpot build, $0.50 is collected from qualifying hands at Bad Beat Jackpot tables.
