UltimateBet Hits Two Bad-Beat Jackpots in Four HoursMore Than $782,000 Was Given to Players at the Designated Tables |
|
Hands that qualify for a bad-beat jackpot are very uncommon, since quad eights are rarely beaten. Two bad-beat jackpots being hit within hours of each other is even rarer, but UltimateBet had just that happen earlier this week.
The first jackpot hit at 6:29 a.m. ET on Oct. 25. With $612,393.75 accumulated from the rake at designated bad-beat jackpot tables, the prizes awarded were quite significant. ITALIC lost with quad eights to SMITH76's quad aces. ITALIC did not have time to pout about his loss, since he was immediately awarded $202,603 for the bad beat. SMITH76 received $101,301. The seven players at the table on which the bad beat took place snagged $2,366.68 apiece, while the other 62 players at bad-beat jackpot tables at the same stakes took home $1,366.68 each.
Less than four hours later, at 10:12 a.m. ET, the UltimateBet bad-beat jackpot prize pool was already up to $158,984.93 when it hit again. HOSSDOG556 was on the losing end of the qualifying hand, so he received the lion's share of the jackpot, which amounted to $51,670.11. The other 182 players split $103,340.21.
