The CarbonPoker Bad Beat Jackpot has paid out yet again – for the second time in ten days. Lucky players have won more than $760,000 in this short period of time.

A Bad Beat Jackpot pays out when a player loses a showdown with a premium hand of Quad Sevens or better. This is the lowest qualifier in the industry and enables quite a bit of excitement on the Bad Beat Tables.

Early this morning, rangerjay1 earned $58, 456.93 as his Four Kings lost to callmeguys ($29,228.46) and his Royal Flush. These massive payouts came from a pot of $74.58. The seven remaining players at the table were also awarded $4,175.49 for being present during the momentous hand.

This came only ten days after baseball127 won $211,758.31 by losing with a straight flush.

CarbonPoker set the standard for Bad Beat Jackpots in February of 2009 as they paid out a world record setting $1.2 million. Well over $2.4 million has now been paid out.

As stated by CarbonPoker spokesman, Jay Manning: “When you think of the chances of hands like this happening so close together, it is just mind-boggling. There have been some lucky players at Carbon over the past month, and we want to see this trend continue. Anytime there is more excitement at CarbonPoker, it is great for us and our players.”
The Bad Beat Jackpot has been reseeded and continues to grow for the next winner. You can see the bonus increase in real time at CarbonPoker.
