Bad Beat Jackpot Pays Out $605,023.76!
Yet again the Rue St. Catherine Bad Beat Jackpot table has left 9 very lucky players smiling all the way to the bank! In less than 60 seconds Baseball127 went from losing a $128 pot, to seeing his balance grow by a massive $211,738.51 when his open ended straight flush hit the magical river card. It was the Queen of clubs and despite hitting his Queen high straight flush, it also gave his opponent poker's holy grail - A Royal Flush!
With Quad 7's being the minimum qualifying hand, we're fairly certain he didn't mind the lady dressed in black losing him the $128 pot and seeing a sea of chips fill the screen. As $211,738.51 goes along way to easing the pain! Congratulations must also be given to WhiteCSix who's Royal Flush not only netted himself a cool $105,879.15, but also won $15,125.59 for 7 other CarbonPoker players.
With the Bad Beat Jackpot being started at over $121,000, all you river chasers should be on the look out for that next elusive Jackpot win!
