Stake.us Poker Boosts Bad Beat Jackpot to 1M SC

Stake.us Poker has increased its bad beat jackpot to 1,000,000 Stake Cash (SC). The jackpot is active across all the operator’s Hold’em and Omaha tables, with the total share of the prize pool allocated according to the stakes. Stake.us Poker is already one of the top choices for sweepstakes poker sites, allowing US players to compete for real money prizes without having to make traditional deposits.

To trigger the BBJ at Stake.us Poker, a player needs to lose with AAAJJ (Aces Full of Jacks) or better in Hold’em or 2222x (Quad Deuces) or better in Omaha. For four-of-a-kind hands, hands must contain a pocket pair to qualify. Hands must reach the showdown and both players must use two of their hole cards. Only players who are dealt cards at the start of the hand qualify for the jackpot (no sit-outs).

Once all these conditions are satisfied and the jackpot payout is triggered, all participants in the hand are paid as follows: 8% of the total pool goes to the hand loser, 5% goes to the pot winner, and 3% is distributed to other qualifying players. Each stake has its own jackpot amount, which represents a percentage of the overall pool, shared between all Hold’em and Omaha games. PLO 5 tables are coming soon to Stake.us Poker.
