No...looks like it only got hit once.

no, it got hit twice within 1 minute. I'd be somewhat disappointed to be the 2nd batch to hit it (reduced JP)

FWIW, this is not the first time I've noticed this...the past few times it's gotten rather large (>300K), it has also grown over the course of 5-9 days and then been hit 2 or 3 times within an hour...enough to make you wonder just how independent these events are...

Re: PPJP @ 450k!
 

If it got hit twice then why is the JP currently at $100k.


I don't remember how much they keep to re-seed the JP but I think it's something like 30% (after their 10% 'administrative fee' maybe).

If it got hit twice I would expect it to be somewhere around $10k....not $100k.


Perhaps it got hit twice and they had some collusion or something weird at one of the tables and took it away??

Because the amount that the JP is at now certainly seems to indicate that it only got hit once.

Re: PPJP @ 450k!
 

DAMNITTTTTTT... All the hours I spent in the past 3 days trying to hit it were a waste of time and effort. Could someone please post the jackpot hand?

Does anybody figure Taxes into their EV calculation on the thing?

Re: PPJP @ 450k!
 

If the bad beat jackpot were $4m instead of $400k, and you were playing 2/4, you'd probably be right. As it is though, you're not. The odds are off by a mile.

If those are the real screen names of the players on the table, then I yell FOUL!!
