People don't generally try to lose their hands but when the poker room has a Bad Beat Jackpot and you lose with the ultimate hand you still get to win. 

The Bad Beat Jackpot at Ultimate Bet was $546,253.86 dollars but on Tuesday morning it was won by a Texas Hold'em player known online as "joeyvegas0711" when he got the bad beat.

The jackpot was won at 10:38am on May 27th when joeyvegas0711 turned over his amazing four queens to win but then in the next moment the other player, babybaby16 turned over his queen high straight flush and won the $35.44 dollar pot.  Now at that moment I imagine joeyvegas0711 was saying what the ??? but his mood improved shortly.

For his losing hand, joeyvegas0711 got $177,532.51 dollars out of the $546,253.86 Bad Beat Jackpot. BabyBaby16 also got to take something from the Bad Beat Jackpot and got to add $88,766.25 dollars to his $35.44 pot win.  Another 270 players also got to share in the Bad Beat Jackpot celebration by splitting $88,766.25 dollars between them.
