A record $2.5 million &#8220;Bad Beat Jackpot&#8221; was shared among 46 players at the Casino du Lac-Leamy in Gatineau, Quebec.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8220;Loto-Qu\u00e9bec&#8221; casino, where a $1\/3 no-limit hold'em game was played, paid out one of the largest &#8220;Bad Beat Jackpot&#8221; winnings in history. It is also the second-largest &#8220;Bad Beat Jackpot&#8221; prize in poker history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, both of the largest occurred in Canada. The bad beat jackpot was won when a straight flush on the river beat quad 10s; a payout of 2.6 million Canadian dollars (or 1.87 million USD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_76 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #000000;color:#000000\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #000000;color:#000000\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 eztoc-toggle-hide-by-default' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/46-players-shared-a-record-1-87-million-bad-beat-jackpot\/#Jackpot_Winning_Hand\" >Jackpot Winning Hand<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/46-players-shared-a-record-1-87-million-bad-beat-jackpot\/#Jackpot_Winning_Hand-2\" >Jackpot Winning Hand<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jackpot_Winning_Hand\"><\/span>Jackpot Winning Hand<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"611\" height=\"764\" src=\"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-15.jpg\" alt=\"Bad Beat Jackpot record winning hand\" class=\"wp-image-1098361\" style=\"width:423px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-15.jpg 611w, https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-15-240px-300px.jpg 240w, https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-15-180px-225px.jpg 180w, https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-15-96px-120px.jpg 96w, https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/app\/uploads\/2025\/04\/image-15-373px-466px.jpg 373w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 611px) 100vw, 611px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>At the Casino du Lac-Leamy's &#8220;OK Poker Lounge&#8221; in Gatineau, a player losing with four tens or better receives the bad beat prize.

One player turned over 10\u266510\u2666 to make four of a kind, while his opponent revealed Q\u26639\u2663 to make a straight flush, thus winning the bad beat jackpot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Jackpot_Winning_Hand-2\"><\/span>Jackpot Winning Hand<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>According to the Lac-Leamy bad beat jackpot rules, the player who loses the hand receives 40% of the pot, the winner gets 20%, the players at the table receive 20%, and the remaining 20% is distributed among all players playing at that time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time, 46 players were playing at five tables. The player with four tens took home $726,000 (1,005,421 Canadian dollars), the player with the straight flush received $363,000 (502,711 Canadian dollars), and the other six players at the table took home about $84,000 (60,000 Canadian dollars) each. Another 38 players received prizes of $13,000 (or 9,400 USD).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This case might be the only one where unfortunate circumstances&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":541,"featured_media":1098386,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[191,1655,1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1098399","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-naujienos","category-news","category-uncategorized-lt"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1098399","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/541"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1098399"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1098399\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1098410,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1098399\/revisions\/1098410"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1098386"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1098399"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1098399"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pokeriomokykla.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1098399"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
