Casino Beacon > Online Casinos > New Casino Bonuses > Bonus Archive 24 July 2008 Bad Beat, Big Bucks Microgaming, the world's largest provider of Online Casino Software, has had its unique Bad Beat Jackpot won when a poker player stormed the tables and claimed an $86,475.23 stake. The Bad Beat Jackpot hit almost $250,000, making the total 35% higher than ever before. However, the final ten players showed little regard for the statistics, as those seated at the final $0.50/$1.00 table all benefited from a share of the Bad Beat Pot. Players from a range of sites, such as Stan James, Betway, Unibet, Triobet and Nordicbet, all took a share, as Microgaming's Poker Network powers over 40 Online Poker Rooms worldwide. The Bad Beat Jackpot, one of the favourite ways to play on Microgaming's Poker Network, means that everyone can be a winner. It kicks in when beaten hands of Four of a Kind, 8's or better are beaten offering the player the chance of a Bad Beat payout. To qualify for the Bad Beat jackpot four or more players must be dealt into a hand, the hand must be a raked hand and the jackpot contribution is collected from that hand. The best hand of the winner and the loser must include the hole cards and the hand must go to a showdown. |
