Posted on November 12, 2009 by Henrik Witt
Classic Pokers bad beat poker jackpot has been hit twice for big amounts in less than 4 months. Last time the jackpot reached an amount of more than €600,000 before it was paid out and the “unlucky” winner Roger2010 was paid an astonishing €210,508.5 when he saw his quad 8s being beaten by the player named (o1nfl1p holding quad queens. (o1nfl1p was awarded €105,254.25 on top of the money in the pot and all other players who had been dealt cards on the jackpot table had their accounts credited an unbelievable €15,036.82.
The bad beat jackpot was boosted twice by Classic Poker to add lots of excitement for the players. The last boost from €480,000 to €500,000 really gave the last kick for poker players who looked to score big and the jackpot tables were running steadily round the clock adding thousands of Euros to the prize pool every hour. In the specific hand that paid out the bad beat jackpot the flop came down Q8Q and already on the turn the jackpot explosion was secured when the case 8 hit the felt. None of the players knew about their good fortune until the river card was dealt and the announcement of the biggest jackpot ever being won on Classic poker was a reality.
In August the Classic Poker bad beat jackpot also was paid out for a total of €412,781 when the player AlkaliEars saw his quad jacks beaten by quad kings held by his opponent. The losing player was awarded more than €144,000 with the winner of the hand taking home €72,000 and all other players getting a compensation of €24,000. The bad beat jackpot currently stands at almost €150,000 and is growing daily at our online poker room. At Classic poker it is only quads sixes that need to be beaten for the bad beat jackpot to be released which make this the easiest jackpot to win online.
