I think the way that most of the 'badbeat jackpots' work is that if you lose when you have 4 of a kind or better, you can win the jackpot.
There are catches though - I read the rules at one site (don't remember which one). There were a lot of requirements that I forget, but I do remember that you MUST use both of your hole cards. So if you lose with 4 Aces, but 3 of them were on the table - you wouldn't win.
Stuff like that - tough to win, but definitely worth it if you do. |
