Aces full of Tens or better beaten by quads or better.

So if your aces full of tens lose to less than quads you don't win the jackpot?

How can you lose with aces full to anything less than quads?

Everyone sees the river in an eight handed game and the community card is the bug.

There was more stud than hold'em in AC until around 2000. In fact, the old Caesars room was all stud. In Vegas, there was very little stud when I started playing in the late 1990s.

They had four tables in the old Ceasars "room". It was more like a poker hallway. I don't know about more stud than holdem in 2000, but there was certainly a lot more than there is now. Of course, no limit was virtually non-existant.

I like this answer.

There are separate jackpots for hold'em, stud, and Yamaha. For hold'em, it is specified that Aces full must be beaten by quads or higher, so AK vs. AQ on a AAKQ4 board wouldn't qualify. Also both hole cards from both hands must play, so KK vs. 84 on a KK444 board wouldn't pay. Also, Aces full must have at least one Ace in the hole in order to qualify. This was pretty annoying when my QQ lost to Ace-big on an AAAxx board. Anyway, I'm in the habit of saying that Aces full of Tens or better must be beaten by quads or better because I play more hold'em than stud at Canterbury.
