In most cases, bad beats are a source of annoyance for poker players since they are tired of reading forum posts by the guy whining about a $3 pot he lost after having pocket aces cracked by pocket 7's. But at Carbon Poker, bad beat jackpots are a source of major money since the Bad Beat Jackpot here commonly offers hundreds of thousands of dollars. "dk2112" found this out firsthand after winning over $156,000 with the Carbon Poker Bad Beat Jackpot.
"dk2112" won this massive amount of cash after having four 7's cracked by “BlackOutBob” and his four 8′s. Of course, it looked like “dk2112″ was a clear-cut favorite in this hand after picking up quads on the turn; but "BlackOutBob" hit four eights on the river and moved all-in. "dk2112" eventually called "BlackOutBob" and the huge jackpot was set off!
Besides "dk2112" winning the $156,402 Bad Beat Jackpot, "BlackOutBob" also earned $78,201 for winning the hand. As if this wasn't enough, the other five players in the hand made $13,033. If you're interested in earning this kind of cash, you should check out the Carbon Bad Beat tables in the lobby. $0.50 is taken from each hand to fund the huge jackpot, and a player needs to be beaten while holding four 7's or better to release the jackpot. This differs from a lot of other bad beat sites where the requirements are a little more stringent.
The Carbon Bad Beat Jackpot is already over $100,000 again so there's plenty of money to be made by jumping in on the bad beat tables right now. The bad beat loser would earn 35% of the current jackpot ($35,000) and the winner will scoop 17.5% (over $17,500). The money seems right so hit the tables and start playing!
