Jackpot!

[Predator314]

Whee! I just won part of the bad beat jackpot on Party Poker. I was playing 4 BBJ tables at the $3/6 level when I got this hand:

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (9 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is SB with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="CC3333">UTG raises</font>, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO folds, Button folds, Hero calls, BB folds.

Flop: (7 SB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP3 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (5 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG bets</font>, MP3 calls, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="CC3333">UTG 3-bets</font>, MP3 folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero caps</font>, UTG calls.

River: (14 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls $3 (All-In).

Final Pot: 15.50 BB
<font color="green">Main Pot: 15 BB, between UTG and Hero.</font> &gt; <font color="white">Pot won by Hero (15 BB).</font>
<font color="green">Pot 2: 0.50 BB, returned to Hero.</font>

Results in white below: <font color="white">
Hero has Td Ts (four of a kind, tens).
UTG has 9c 9h (four of a kind, nines).
Outcome: Hero wins 15.50 BB. </font>

It wasn't a huge amount, but pretty good lick. I got 25% for $14,587.98. The bad beat dude got twice that, and the rest of the table split $14,587.98.

Sweet! Congratulations man. It's too bad the Jackpot wasn't bigger, but hey, an extra $14.5K is a nice treat! [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Just curious, do you know how large the total jackpot was? Probably around $70,000?

Very cool. Next time try to have quad 8's when up against quad 9's.

You can think of it as winning 2450 BB in the hand, sounds bigger that way. [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Heheh, yeah that's gonna throw off his pokertracker stats for a while.

Wow grats man! 14k is pretty damn sweet!

Do they make you jump through hoops when you win a jackpot, like sending I.D., utility bills, pledging allegiance to the flag, or whatever?

How was it not capped on the river?
