Never has a Bad Beat been worth so much in the history of online poker as when Poker Heaven player OmgoMgomGo had Quad Kings beaten by Quad Aces whilst playing at a €0.50/€1 NLHE table. The world record jackpot was hit at €1,265,583.34, with OmgoMgomGo landing a jackpot prize of €442,954. In addition to the main prize, the winner of the hand – 7Adelaida7 scooped an additional €221,477, with a further 7 players all receiving €31,639.57 each for participating in the hand. The Bad Beat Jackpot has already re-seeded at over €250,000 meaning another player will scoop a huge payout next time the jackpot hits.
The action was quite straight forward with OmgoMgomGo getting dealt KD,KH versus 7Adelaida7’s AD,AH, and all the money going in pre-flop. The flop provided both players with sets as it came down AS,9H,KC. OmgoMgomGo then overtook 7Adelaida7 when the turn card fell the King of Spades, however the Ace of Clubs on the river provided a Bad Beat that OmgoMgomGo will never forget.
