The Carbon Poker Bad Beat Jackpot has continued to grow for some time and was sitting as the largest online poker bad beat jackpot ever. Players were hoping that they would be the lucky one to hit the jackpot and on Friday the 13th one player did hit the massive jackpot.

RUGGIO is the lucky player who took down the jackpot and he lives in New York. RUGGIO was playing on the Merge Gaming Poker network when he hit the jackpot. RUGGIO won the jackpot after he was beaten on the lowest stake jackpot table. The blinds begin at fifty cents and one dollar. RUGGIO held a straight flush of seven to jack of hearts.

AELANI beat RUGGIO when he got a higher straight flush. RUGGIO won $417,396 of the $1.2 million jackpot while AELANI won $208,698 for putting RUGGIO out. The other five players seated at the table with RUGGIO won $41,739, so everyone was happy.

The jackpot has been reset and is currently sitting at $247,000. It will be interesting to see how high the jackpot will get before it is hit again. It would be nice if the jackpot grows larger than the $1.2 million that was just hit!
