Bad beats in poker are awesome to witness but absolutely no one would want to be at the losing end of that situation. The simplest description of a bad beat is when a poker hand that is a favorite to win initially, suddenly loses to an underdog hand that catches up and surprisingly beats it.
While getting a bad beat will certainly ruin any poker player's day, you may be welcoming that scenario [...] Read more » partypoker's Latest Promotion will Have You Hoping for a Bad Beat!

I am not a player who accepts this. I do not get along with the situation because if it counts the number of bad beats i received is much higher to what i won. The scenario has happened too often for me in the past and because of this i quit playing in other room with many bad beats.

If you think how hard it is to get a bad beat, then the prize they are giving is not that big. A progressive jackpot is always better, but they may have one already. The tournament of course is a big one, so you may end up, winning big money from the actual game. That if you manage to get the itcket from the satellite

they try to make so many promotions for players and to find different ways to award players even when they lose money!maybe this want be big amount for some players,but if some play on low buy in-s get something like this and who what can make from this 109 $ ticket!
I have seen such promotions in other poker rooms and now PartyPoker also decided to hold this promotion .... Of course, when you have the best hand from the start and you hope to win it is very sad When you end up losing ... this prize Certainly very good help such situations .... It is probably good that PartyPoker is conducting such a promotion

Besides the facte that they do not award any money for the bad beat, like other sites do with the jackpot, they have a limitation in the games where you can get one and be eligible for it. Powerfest, satellites and spins. So probably the ones playing spins, will have more chances for one.

There ( in online poker ) are players who win more hands with bad beats and they have an exaggerated luck. Why they are lucky and many players are not lucky? When this happens, you can no longer trust in the fairness of these games. For me, i have no luck very often to beat the players with bad beats and and i am part of the group of players, who do not have this bizarre luck. Hmmm.

Do you call a bad beat luck. You can say that when there is a side prize to it. Unless there is it is just bad luck. And after that it depends on what the prize for the bad beat is. If it something less than the hand you just lost, its silly. Better Like in this case with the tickets.

All players who win with absurd cards after the turn and the river, they have a great luck. Bad luck is only who lose with bad beat. Unfortunately, for me i'm a part of the grup who lose with bad beats. I have no luck on the turn and on the river in important situations. It's online poker where i'm not favored, as other players...
In my poker career there were very different results .... there were games when I won initially with the worst hand and in the end I was lucky and I won .... but there were also opposite cases when I initially counted on Victory But one ridiculous card that turned out to be on the table I spoiled the whole holiday .... therefore, a similar promotion of course will please some of those who lost initially winning

This promotion is great. Although I do not understand that of losing with 2 or 4 of its kind. Losing with a bad beat and ending up playing a super tournament is something expetacular. That's why, as I said before, the promotions that Party Poker has are excellent and its million-dollar prizes tournaments too Good luck to you all See you at the tables...
