A world record was set at Playground Poker Club in Canada on Wednesday when a poker bad beat jackpot hit in a low-stakes cash game for CAD $2,590,185 (approximately $1.9 million USD).
The popular Quebec card room shared photos on social media of the hand along with the players involved celebrating. When it comes to a bad beat jackpot, it is customary for the player who lost the hand to receive the largest chunk of the pot and the winning player to also secure a big portion of the reward. Additionally, the other players at the table then split the remainder of the pot.
Details on how much each player involved will receive isn't yet publicly available and we will update this article when the casino releases it to us.
