Special Features at Party Poker

• Beginner tables - the beginner tables, only those who have recently joined the Party Poker play.
• The Bad Beat Jackpot - The Bad Beat Poker is a very important part of Party Poker. There are over a dog active table with BBJ. This jackpot is paid when someone at one of all these tables are losing a very rare SHOWDOWN involving four of a kind of eights or higher, and so both hole cards must be included in order to qualify for the Bad Beat Jackpot. How is the pot, 70% goes to the players, 20% saved for the next Bad Beat Jackpot and 10% goes back to PartyPoker. 50% of the profit goes to the loser, 25% to the winner, and the remaining 25% of other players who appeared in “Showdown”. One can see the pot growing in real time in the lobby. So far, the biggest pot is paid to the entire NZ $ 1 255 807 at 0.50 / 1 Limit Hold’em tables. This happened on 11th November 2008.
