What is the Bad Beat Jackpot feature on GG Poker?

The Bad Beat Jackpot feature on GG Poker is a special promotion designed to offer consolation and a substantial financial reward to poker players who experience an exceptionally unlucky loss. Specifically, it occurs when a player holds an exceedingly strong hand, typically at least a full house or better, but is defeated by an even stronger hand. For the jackpot to be triggered, certain pre-set conditions must be met, including minimum hand requirements and the number of players involved in the hand. When a bad beat that fits these criteria occurs, the jackpot - which accumulates progressively by collecting small amounts from pots in eligible games - is distributed among the players. Generally, the biggest portion goes to the player with the losing "bad beat" hand, while other players at the table and sometimes even players at other tables playing the same game and stakes may also share a smaller part of the jackpot.
