The Gold Strike in Tunica is near 200k right now.


[/ QUOTE ] The problem with that is it's four 10's or better. Quads over quads is hard enough but four 10's? wow.

I totally agree. I wonder how often their mini one gets hit.

Just wondering where the current highest Bad Beat Jackpot might be right now?

Seneca Niagara's is at $274,000. It has not been hit since November.

Well a few weeks ago Stations got to 430k. No matter how high it gets the loser/winner shares are always the same though. It's room/network shares that make up the rest.

I think the win was at $480k. It was crazy. The wait for a game at Red Rock was over 1 1/2 hours for a table that week. Hit again the next morning, and I was at Texas Station on Sat when it hit again.

It's only up to 180k last night.

Witzo, I live in Struthers and journey to Niagara at least once a month (for the past 4 years). I was thinking of next time going to Salamanca but I have never been there.

Is about 45 minutes closer? I usually play 2/5 but I hear you can only buy-in for $200 max like Niagara used to do?

Any info you could provide me would help. TIA.

I'm not sure where Struthers is. The $2-5NL is a fixed buyin of $100-200; you can play $5-10 for $200-500 on weekends if it's running. Both the larger NL games have a ton of softplaying going on among the regulars, who are many and mortifyingly loose PF.

I went to GVR for some lunch and play some cards. Called up, got on the list for basically everything up to 10/20 except for 2/4. We got there, and the closest we were was about 60th on any list, on a tuesday about 2pm. This was when it was only in the 300's. Anyways, went to eat, donked around a bit at VP, came back 1.5 hours later and still barely 40th on the list (highest point of any). So my buddy and I said F it and left. That's just stupid. I talked to a few buddies of mine that deal there and they said the games got so insanely tight with people just calling for the flop with a pair and everyone checking everything down that the games were terrible all around. Go figure, typical for badbeat/freeroll chasing games in this town.

I've said it before and now again, freerolls/badeat jackpots create such terrible games because that's the only reason anyone is there, not to actually play poker. Another reason why I stick to the strip for poker like many of you guys here.

Struthers is a suburb of Youngstown. It borders it on the South Side.

Thanks for the info.

Powerball is $90M right now, it only costs you one drop and you don't have to be sitting at the table to hit it. [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] Either way you're buying a lottery ticket.

Mega Millions is $267 Million right now, seems like a slightly better spot to blow some cash

[zuluking]

I've seen several BBJ over 1/2 million. I was also at Argosy Casino in Baton Rouge the night it was up around 350K, hit, and then the backup hit 25 minutes later for 160K.

Monster Jackpot at Party Poker... Oh wait, we can't play there any more... Darn!
