Bad-beat Jackpot «Holdem»

Bad-beat jackpot can turn your impressions upside down after losing a hand! Just imagine that you have a perfect hand and you are anticipating to win a big pot against an annoying opponent, but suddenly he turns out to have collected an even stronger hand and he gets all your desired chips. Painful? You bet. But wait, if you played at a Bad-beat jackpot table it is you who really won! How it works?

Pokerbet has special UAH tables with a little higher commission fee, where players form the jackpot prize fund themselves. In some cases its amount can reach up to several million UAH! And if on a such table a player with Full House of Aces (AAAxx) loses to an even more powerful hand, Bad-beat jackpot will be distributed and hand loser will get the main pot! That's why it is named so.

You can play at Bad Beat Jackpot tables with blinds of 0.25/0.5 UAH and higher.
