Estonian poker pro wins over $134,000 with Bad Beat Jackpot!
On the 8th of November, an Estonian poker player, known as “I MP I,” scored an incredible win on OlyBet Poker, taking home a staggering $134,465.89 after triggering the Bad Beat Jackpot. Competing at the NLH Diamond table #2 with blinds at $10/$20, “I MP I” achieved a full house with AAAQQ, holding AQ in hand. However, in a remarkable turn of events, the opponent held AK, and on a board of KAA6Q, he made a higher full house, narrowly beating “I MP I” with a stronger “boat”.
Despite technically losing the hand, “I MP I” walked away with one of the biggest wins in recent Estonian poker history. With the GGNetwork Bad Beat Jackpot conditions met, the player claimed a massive jackpot. “I MP I” received $134,465, the winner of the hand took home $40,339.77, and the three remaining players at the table each received $10,757.
For those unfamiliar with the Bad Beat Jackpot, it’s an OlyBet Poker feature designed to reward players who suffer exceptionally unlucky hands. When a strong hand like a full house of Aces over Queens is beaten, the jackpot is activated, creating a winning outcome from an otherwise tough loss.
