What’s a Bad Beat Jackpot?

The Bad Beat Jackpot is a progressive jackpot that rewards the player with the worst beat hand and the other players at their table. If you’re favoured to win the hand but are beaten at the showdown, you win the Bad Beat Jackpot!

How to win

In the poker lobby, choose a Texas Hold’em Poker table reserved for Bad Beat jackpots. To win, get the second-highest ranked hand in the game with:

Bad Beat Jackpot
Four eights or better

Micro Bad Beat
Four twos or better

The player with a Bad Beat and the player with the highest-ranked hand must always hold a five-card poker hand that includes their two pocket cards. In the case of four of a kind, the player’s two (2) pocket cards must be a pair.
