I’m sure the dealer even got quite a good tip from the players that night! Luck was definitely in the air

The players knew what they were doing and were one hundred percent interested in the situation, the more they were team players. The chances of winning a team are much higher than yourself. Winning the jackpot in poker is also much easier than in the lottery.:D

A dose of bad luck has helped a group of players win a bad beat poker jackpot. Fadi Semaan and his tablemates at Casino du Lac-Leamy have split a bad beat poker jackpot worth more than $500K USD.

Oh to be so 'unlucky'!

Unlucky Quads Unlock Lucky Six-Figure Bad Beat Poker Jackpot at Canadian Casino

I was going to reply based on just the headline. After reading the post it was exactly what I was going to say! Bad Beat!!! I came 1 card away from my KKKK losing to an AAAA but they didn't get their 4th A on the Turn or River. So close! I think the bad beat was somewhere around 150k that night.

Needless to say, the rest of the table was all on their feet during the Turn and River. Everyone had already confirmed they didn't have an A. They were all into it because the rest of the table would've gotten a small split also.

Kind of exciting right there!

Great way to turn a huge disappointment into a huge win... and to suck fish into the game and keep them chasing their monster hands! Gotta love it.

I've actually played with Fadi a bunch of times since he's a regular at Casino du Lac Leamy and he's a very nice guy and well deserving of the prize. Hope it's me one of these days!!

If I ever hit it big I'm sure its going to be in the form of a bad beat. I will take it anyway I can get it though, I would never be able to lay down quads even if I thought there was the slimmest chance another player had one as well. I would just take the chance he was bluffing that he may have quads as well!

The casino I go to has a Bad Beat Jackpot as well. Only the table gets paid, not the whole room. The loser gets 50%, winner gets 25%, and the rest of the table splits 25%. Usually gets up to 50k to 100k and has other high hand promotions to go with it!
