AWESOME UPDATE: in the past 12 months, CarbonPoker has paid out $2,833,938.01 to our Bad Beat Jackpot winners and losers.

Just as the famous Carbon Poker Bad Beat Jackpot hit $300,000, five lucky winners brought it right back down.

On the flop, medman08 had 4 Aces and WizAlex0 had 3 9s. The Turn completed WizAlex0’s 4 of a kind (9s), and both players were obviously all-in. The pot was a paltry $277, but the payout was extreme. WizAlex0 took down $105,723 as the hand’s loser and medman08 won $52,862.

Let’s not forget about the three others at the table who won $17,621 for their troubles (folding).

For those of you that don’t know, the Carbon Poker Bad Bead Jackpot goes off when a hand of Quad 7s or higher gets beaten — keep in mind that this is the lowest qualifier online.

Payout:

• WizAlex0 Wins $105,723.46 (Bad Beat Loser)
• medman08 Wins $52,861.73 (Bad Beat Winner)
• RMaroni Wins $17,620.57 (Bad Beat Other)
• Market6226 Wins $17,620.57  (Bad Beat Other)

There’s just one more thing to do before we fully dive into December: play the Turkey Grand Slam.

This Saturday, December 5th, the top 128 players on the Turkey Grand Slam Leaderboard will face off in a unique starting stack heads up tournament. The best part? The jackpot is going to weigh in at a hefty $28,995. Over $28K was built up over the month from a meager seed of $2,500 from CarbonPoker.

As you know, half the funds from the special Turkey SnGs kept building up this massive total. Nicely done, guys.

We know with the lowest qualifier online (Quad 7s or better losing), our Jackpot would be more frequent, but lately the RNGs have been dealing up bad beats at a frantic pace.

Just this morning, starterkit’s Queen High Straigh Flush bested GLADIATOR8791’s Quad 8s in a hand with a $23 pot on one of our Bad Beat Jackpot Tables. You know the rest.

$42,633.32 was awarded to GLADIATOR8791 and starterkit’s bankroll was padded with an additional $21,316.66. A slice of $3,045.23 was handed out to the remaining 7 players at the table — proving once again that losing can be profitable. CarbonPoker is the home of Bad Beats lately.

Because the Jackpots have gone off so often lately, these guys weren’t close to our $1.2Million Bad Beat Jackpot payout, but I’m sure they’ll still take it.

As usual, the Jackpot has been reseeded and is already growing. Check it out on the Homepage to see it increase in real time.

In the wee hours of the morning, WhiteCSix’s Royal Flush beat baseball127’s straight flush on one of Carbon’s Bad Beat Tables.

As the loser of the hands, baseball127 cleaned up with a staggering $211,758.31. WhiteCSix’s Royal Flush was good for 6 figures as well, totaling $105,879.15. Decent, right?

As for the players that smartly got out of the way, they all earned $15,125.59. For just. sitting. there. /logs on to poker account… /plays hands… /hopes for $15K.

As you probably know, CarbonPoker has the lowest qualifier of any Bad Beat Jackpot online. Only Quad 7s or better need to be beaten for the bonus to payout. The guys playing last night, however, weren’t messing around and decided to show down with two of the biggest hands in poker.

If you missed out on the jackpot, don’t worry! The BBJ has been reseeded and currently sits at a sizable $125K. Sure, that’s less than baseball127 took down himself, but the Bad Beat Jackpot has a way of getting up there when you least expect it.

Earlier this year, we had a World Record payout of $1.2Million and another one of almost $750K. It seems that CarbonPoker just loves giving away cash.
Congrats on tbe big wins, guys. If you’re looking to make an investment… I know this really great blogger with a lot of big ideas… Just let me know.
