Ultimate Bet Player Wins Large Bad Beat Jackpot

QUANTOM47 is an online poker player who recently signed up to play on Ultimate Bets poker room. It was just over a week after his signup when he won just over $170,000 while playing Texas Hold’em at the Bad Beat Jackpot tables.

Only nineteen years old, QUANTOM47 from Canada has earned a large payday. He lost a hand of hold’em when he had quad queens against another online player, RUSTY_1’s royal flush. This normally would be an everyday loss and you move on but not this time.

QUANTOM47 had a hand of four eights or better and won a percentage of the 65% of the jackpot that is divided among the players at the table. 25% of the jackpot goes to build a new jackpot and 10% goes to fees of the website. Also any player seated at a Bad Beat Jackpot table with the same limit and game type as the table with the win will receive a piece of the prize as well.

QUANTOM47’s cut was exactly $173,693.20 and the player who beat him took home $86,796.60. Three hundred and seventy three other players who were at their table or other tables of the same type shared $86,796.60. So I imagine no one was upset to lose that night!
