Guessing it will have to hold off until they have the freeroll for those who have listed it on their blogs. A bit more milking to do as folks have until the end of January to submit their link to win the coupon. :)

We need more clarification from the site armbrust because I agree with you (the areas where I used red) Yes, kicker plays = 4 cards in play ...:confused: An identical situation occurred where I play live about six months ago and the BB jackpot went off; unfortunately it was at a table behind me :(

In the area you had marked in red you were talking about 1 person holding a K high straight flush in spades and the other holding 4 of a Kind Kings with the board being KKKsQsJs.
"that he have seen jackpots hit with hands like AK vs Ts9s board KKKsQsJs (the no US site), he explain to me that the losing hand is AKKKK and the kicker plays, so the 4 cards play."

I don't know if this is relevent to your discussion but our site requires both hold card to play and in the case of the 4 of a kind Kings, on our site the starting hand must be pocket pairs to be eligible for the BBJ. This hand may look like it should take down the BBJ but it won't because of the hold card rule. A hand is always made up of 5 cards from which the best poker hand is derived from.

the winning and losing hands must be a pp or a sc up to 3 gaps, at other sites the losing hand can be a 72o.

Player A: 7d 2h

Player B: 3s 4s

Board: 2d 2c 2s 5s 6s

Winning hand: 2s 3s 4s 5s 6s

Losing hand: 2d 2c 2s 2h 7d (kicker plays)

Good elsewhere, no good here.

Deek, see above ... again. Will it ever go off having to have at the minimum 77 in your hand, who knows, but the rule of having to have a PP as your hole cards (77 or higher) certainly makes it difficult if not impossible to hit it. Someone, I forget who right now, figured out the math of hitting it and it was like a zillion to one

what raby was asking was what i confirmed, if u have 2 suited cards that is enough to hit the str8 flush, i said yes, but ur saying no... :confused:

[MASKOAA]

No it counts the 4 of a kind doesnt count if its not 4 of a kind using a pocket pair like pocket 8's with 2 8's on the board also I believe its 7777 and above to qualify.

[armbrust]

what raby was asking was what i confirmed, if u have 2 suited cards that is enough to hit the str8 flush, i said yes, but ur saying no... :confused:

What she means is that in the case of quads it must be a pp.

About the suited cards, both cards must be used to make the str8 or royal flush.

[deek1972]

exactly, thats what im saying... so raby was correct... we all know u must have the pocket pair, and u must have the 2 suited cards for str8 flush.. hopefully its all cleared up..

[Survivor777]

Yes, my brain was stuck on quads - damn medications lol :P

dont want to know if they are man toes

[racer13]

So this would be a really bad beat, wonder if it would qualify? You know how people will always try to find the worst case scenario.....

Hand 1: 4c 7c
Hand 2: 9d 9s

Board: 5c 6c 8c 9c 9h

Straight flush is counterfeited by larger straight flush, hole card 4c no longer plays in best hand.

However, the smaller 4c-8c straight flush, which is not the best hand obviously, would still beat the quad 9's.....

Bad beat winner? Or just a thanks for playing, try again next time?

I know, I know, not likely, but possible, lol........

In our site's Bad Beat Jackpot rules it says that the lowest losing hand that counts is 4 of a kind 7s and in any 4 of a kind hand the hold cards must be pocket pairs. The BBJ rules are that both the winning and losing hand must use both hold cards. In this senario, the losing hand would be 4 of a kind 9s and his hold cards are both being used.:D It would qualify as a losing hand for the BBJ. The problem here is that the winning hand is not using both of his hold cards to make up his straight flush.:( True his other hold card, the 4c, would still give him a straight flush which would still beat the 4 of a kind 9s,:beaten: but a poker hand is made up of the best 5 cards which in this case is the 9 high straight flush. In poker it doesn't matter if you use both hold cards or not :confused: but for our Bad Beat Jackpot it does. It's too bad you can't pick your winning hand but no matter how you look at it, this would be a really really bad bad bad beat but the Bad Beat Jackpot would still stay intack.:eek:

In short,;) for our BBJ,:rolleyes: all hands above 4 of a kind 7s qualify as long as :beaten:both hold cards are used to make up the hand:beaten:.

[ThaSeFaw]

so what your saying is that the winner and the loser has to have both hold hards also?
