Bad Beat Jackpot Pays Out!

The CarbonPoker Bad Beat Jackpot has paid out again. This time, over $514,000 was awarded to a lucky table of players after Quad Queens beat Quad 7’s.

As you guys know, the Bad Beat Jackpot pays out after a hand of Quad 7’s or better loses at the table. This is pretty insane.

The “loser” of the hand, Ween10, was awarded $257,089.81 for losing with a no-brainer.

Kdawg1979 took down about $60 from the pot and a sweet $128,544.90 with his share of the BBJ.

The seven other players that were just sitting there each took over $18K. Nice day at the tables, right?

In some heartwarming poker news, this is what kdawg1979 had to say:

“I also just wanted to let you know that two or three nights ago, I played in a freeroll, came in third and won five bucks. I got it up to $60 and went to the Bad Beat tables for about two hours and hit it for $128,000. I’ve never made a deposit and I’ve never had so much money before!”

kdawg1979 continued on, “It all came from the freeroll. I’m happy with my winnings. Thank you! It came at the right time. I have three boys and a wife. We were literally getting evicted. This was a blessing from God. Thank you again, Merge”

I love when promotions like this go off. A hand that started out like any other turns into a pretty monumental moment for all 9 players at the table.

I’ll be posting more on this later on today. Keep a look out!
