Default Bad Beat Jackpot is at 421k +

Just be prepared to lose some big pots that you should have won.

It's over $450k now. I'm playing 2 $2/4 tables, and I'm already up $23 after 10 minutes. Love it!

I played since I made that last post (400ish hands of $5/$10 - 3 tabling), and finished up just shy of $400. I took some sick, sick, sick beats, but those same morons were nice enough to pay me off a number of other times. You just have to keep your head.

I just found a few of the single worst players I have ever seen.

Need food. May be back later. Too good to pass this up.

I had no idea how soft these tables were. I may never play another NON-BBJ table again. This is insane.

It's like they are just throwing their money at me, and I barely have time to run around and pick it all up. Sure, the suckouts are annoying, but those players are what make these games so profitable.

I can't wait to see what my session number turn out to be. I'm tired and have wanted to quit for a while now, but I can't tear myself away!

It could easily et to $1,000,000. Will it? I kinda doubt it, but it certainly could.

Think about this too.... 50 cents per hand. That means (for the most part) 1.2 million hands have been played since that last qualifying bad beat.

NOW do you see why you shouldn't chase the jackpot, but rather for the fish chasing the jackpot???

Default Easy come easy go...

The morons are out in full force tonight, calling down with their bottom pairs and hitting their kickers on the river. Over and over and over again. And don't even get me started about the runner runner flushes. I know these are the guys I should love playing with (I certainly did last night), but damn it gets annoying when they suckout so much in one session.

It's 4:52am, I see that you're also playing.

And I've taken a huge hit tonight. Not necessarily bad beats, but these guys are hitting real long shots.

Yeah, I knew I was in trouble when I said I hadn't lost there yet. Two consecutive -15BB sessions dented me up a bit. My favorite was AA vs 3,4. You can guess who won.

I saw someone once calculate the odds of hitting the jackpot, and they truly were astronomical. So being there for the fish is probably the best plan.

Another plan could be to try to hit the jackpot! The jackpot is the highest it's ever been. I don't know about you, but I feel like it's going to be hit any time now.

Anyone else keep dreaming how life-changing it would be to win $250,000?
