UltimateBet Online Poker Sees Bad Beat Jackpot Of Nearly $60k

Poker News - September 30th, 2009 - Written by Glen

Online poker rooms are regularly adding different promotions, and it is not uncommon to see a poker room offering a "bad beats" jackpot. Bad Beats are always a pain, but through Ultimate Bet bad beats are a thing to look forward to. Players experiencing a major bad beat may lose the hand, but as of right now, the jackpot for losing with a certain hand will award the player with a $60,000 dollar jackpot.

Any player who has a four of a kind with eights or better and still loses the hand will be met with a jackpot. Most of the reward goes to the player losing the hand, but a small percentage will go to the winner of the hand, as well as the next bad beat jackpot - making it meaty from the get go. Every other player sitting in at the table will be entitled to a $1,000 dollar cut, making everyone a winner.

The bad beat jackpot takes time to rise to these levels, so all players should be gunning for the progressive jackpot awarded to the unlucky player who manages to loose with a solid hand. There are many ring games and tournaments running at all times, allowing players a constant chance for winning, depending on skill.

UltimateBet is one of the longest running online poker rooms, and this is due in part to their amazing promotions, such as the bad beat jackpot that is currently at an immense $60,000 dollars. Other perks of UltimateBet include an opportunity to make Phil Hellmuth look like a donkey, a chance to play with Annie Duke, and one of the largest deposit bonuses of any online poker room - a 111% match to $1,100 dollars.
