Absolute Bad Beat Jackpot
July 24,2007
“Talk about a double rush of adrenaline,” stated David Clainer, senior vice president for Absolute Poker. “We handed out nearly $250,000 between the two tables last Saturday and we’re gearing up to make even more people very rich.”
At 12:38 on Saturday, July 21st, JOE JETS lost quad 9s to SHORT_SHYT’s quad Jacks and walked away with $97,650.85 for losing the hand.
Within just a few hours of the jackpot being reset, history repeated itself. At 16:55 ET, JBAND277’s quad 10s were no match for GOLFCOFFEY’s quad Jacks. Another $26,890.35 made its way into JBAND277’s account for his losing hand.

About all that tells us is that DAVID CLAINER is a senior VP at Absoulte. I cannot find any reference to him in the SAE fraternity.
