What are the odds of winning the bad beat jackpot if quad 8s or better must be beat to qualify to win?

Like 1 in 1.2 mil [/ QUOTE ] Are you sure about this? There's a threshold where playing the BBJ tables becomes +EV... and it isn't in the millions. I think the payout (not the whole jackpot, the actual prize) has to reach 6 figures and it becomes worthwhile. |

Re: BBJ
How would you go about calculating this?

Re: BBJ
Read the BBJ rules carefully, then calculate the frequency for one qualifying hand, then multiply by frequency for another qualifying hand.
What bothers me is the fine print in BBJ rules (for holdem) that both hole cards must be used to make the qualifying hand. That leaves out the cases where two people make straigt flushes with 4-straightflush board and also cases when board shows quads, etc. That's why I said to read the rules carefully [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |
