According to Microgaming Poker Network, they recently paid out two Bad Beat Jackpots in two days. The first one was on Saturday the 12th of February. A Nordicbet Poker player was sitting with a four of a kind of 10's and lost against a Royal Flush. Losing the call, the player still earned $195,404 from his 10's.

The player explained, "I knew that my Four of a Kind Tens weren’t enough to beat my opponent’s Royal Flush, although when I looked moments later I saw notification of my win and realised that I had hit the Bad Beat Jackpot, and start screaming! I still can’t believe I won and now I think it’s time to relax before taking my place back at the poker table.”

The second Bad Beat Jackpot was on the following day, February 13th. The six players that was involved got a share of $79,985.

According to Microgaming, this was the only time up to date that the Bad Beat Jackpot was won twice in two days.

Microgaming is going to atract lots of new players with this news. Promoting huge Jackpots can be nice for marketing, but giving them and having winning players extased with the happiness of winning such big prize, writing about it in every social media networks, is much more important and reliable publicity. Amazing for the bad "lucky" players and for the poker rooms. I think we will here more news like this from other poker rooms in the next few days, and start wondering: "is it coincidence?"

But you need to play on special Jackpot tables on microgaming?
I hate rake on tables like that... it's really hard to play over break even.
Even if there is a lot of fishes playing there (most of players are fishes cause regulars think it's waste of time to play out there).

imo there was another bad beat jackpot ....

if you watched the sunday million and the deal at the final table ....

sure.. the smallstack suggested the 9man deal.. he win most if the deal comes...
instead of 45k he got ~250k

but nice work of all of them...

and if you see the bubble hands to the final table.. yes there were badbeats!
