  • Bad beat jackpot for any Texas Hold'em game below $10-20 or with blinds below $5-10 on Pot Limit and No Limit flop games.
  • On Texas Hold'em Four of a kind or better must be beaten.
  • Both players must play a pocket pair toward quads or 2 cards toward a straight flush, kickers do not apply. (ex. AK vs.QQ AAAQQ on board, not a bad beat, since the King kicker does not apply towards the bad beat.)
