Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

This is a beat on so many levels... First of all I give you the hand itself:

Party Poker, $2/$4 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 3 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

Hero (SB): $400
BB: $392.12
BTN: $545.30

Pre-Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
BTN folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $14</font>, BB calls $10

Flop: ($28) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $18</font>, <font color="red">BB raises to $36</font>, Hero calls $18

Turn: ($100) 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
Hero checks, <font color="red">BB bets $44</font>, <font color="red">Hero raises to $112</font>, BB calls $68

River: ($324) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $238 and is All-In</font>, BB calls $230.12 and is All-In

Results: $784.24 Pot
Hero showed 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (four of a kind, Eights) and WON $7.88 (-$384.24 NET)
BB showed 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (a straight flush, Nine high) and WON $783.24 (+$391.12 NET)

Now, the REAL beat here is that this happened on a bad beat jackpot table and everyone spent 5 minutes frantically trying to figure out what was going on. Turns out that because two people were sitting out, and a Russian shortstacker had yet to post his blind, there were only 3 people dealt in on the hand. 4 people need to be dealt cards for the hand to qualify. The jackpot was about $380,000. Biggest beat of my life. Feels like I got sucked out 400 buyins deep.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

I never knew that 4 people were needed for the jackpot, that just sounds retarded, I mean isn't this much much harder to achieve shorter handed. And wow, that's like so gay that it happened, if it makes you feel better if the Russian was in the hand it wouldn't have gone down this way so...

I might be the only one here who can really sympathize, but yours is worse than mine by a good margin:

EDIT:

On 2nd thought it's actually pretty close, since if there were 4 people at your table the hands would have been dealt differently.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

I hope you locked away your shoelaces and belts after this happened.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker

It's your worst nightmare: you realize you're the winner of a multi-million dollar jackpot only to find out it's past the deadline to claim your prize. But has this ever happened to anyone?

Unfortunately, yes. Meet Clarence "Inaction" Jackson - the man who went from having the best luck in the world to having the worst luck in the world.

Is there a BBJ drop when there isn't enough players to qualify for the the Jackpot?

[censored] you

You come off as a person even a pedophile would look down upon. Stick your teepee up your ass, your dad is filming. Quick though, Walmart won't let you borrow the camcorder forever.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiick

If this doesn't make you quit poker FOREVER, then I don't know what will. Unless you want to play for a few more eons to have the variance even out.

This is a really [censored] good question.

EDIT: And I believe the answer is no, because I don't see any BBJ rake in the original screenshot.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

wow PP is so scummy. 4 players in the hand? seriously doesn't make any sense, it's just another way for them to steal our money.

If there is no rake taken out, then it is fair, but still dumb.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow...

reading that actually made me feel ill.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

My nuts hurt just from reading this

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

Confirmed that there is no BBJ drop with 3 or less players:

The jackpot contribution will only be collected if the hand is dealt on a jackpot table to four or more players and a rake is collected from the hand

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

wow...ouch

bring more russians on

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

Also to everyone saying that its ridiculous that it doesn't pay for three players, think of it like this:

If they were to pay out on 3 players, they would have to drop for BBJ for 3 players. If they did that, that would be close to a full 1 ptbb/100 coming from each player in 3 handed games at 400nl.

Re: Biggest beat in the history of Party Poker
 

So gross. disgusting.

At least you have sick story to tell.

Meh. I'm sure it's in the terms and conditions, so therefore the players play BBJ tables at their own risk. But, if the game is actually being played 3 handed, then they shouldn't call it a BBJ table while the jackpot isn't live. There should be like a sign that says "BBJ active" that goes off on a table when all the conditions aren't met so players can stop playing at that table if they want.
