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

[/ QUOTE ]

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.

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

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

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.

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.
