Bad Beat Jackpot

GutPunch · #1 08-14-2005, 07:47 AM

Is there anywhere to get information on the best bad beat jackpots that sites offer? I know partys is obviously the biggest but I hear that interpoker now offers one too.

On partys webpage it is never talked about who hit the jackpot and how/how much $$ was won. Any webpages out there that keep track of this sort of thing??

Thanks

Check out bonuswhores, it will tells what the promotion is, but does not track winners or amount each time.

Only Party shills win the BBJ that's why they don't tell you who won!!!!11

Um. . . have you tried looking at the page where they report who hit the jackpot and how much they won?

It's not their most frequently updated page, but it's there.

interpoker and all the cryptologic sites have always had a jackpot on all games including omaha hl and the royal flush bonus. They do not charge additional for this as party does but it doesnt get even close to the size of the party jackpot.

they used to put the name of the player in the main-lobby (where they have the 'half a million guaranteed' ad currently).

If they had a huge jackpot again ($500k plus perhaps) then I bet that name would appear in the lobby again.

Played at a 10/20 or 15/30 table a few months ago with some guy who was sitting with over $100k. Everyone was congratulating him and I didn't know what they were talking about. Later found out that his name was in the lobby for having just won the BBJ.

I was lucky enough to be on his immediate left and he had a VP of around 90 and PFR of 70!! (yummy).
He was also steaming big-time after dropping $5k or so (he was playing practically every hand...what did he expect?).
I did pretty damn nicely against him as I recall.

Lots of players were on his case because he was whining so much.
"You just won $120k (or whatever it was) and you're upset about losing a couple hundred on one hand??"
sutff like that.
