SWC POKER BAD BEAT JACKPOT HIT FOR .418955 BITCOIN ON MARCH 2ND, 2026
The first Bad Beat Jackpot of the year has been hit!
The Jackpot of 418,955 μBTC (0.418955 BTC) was won on March 3rd, 2026! The hand took place at a 3/6 NL Hold’em 6-max table with six players being dealt in on hand #290628005.
The hand began with player Pocket555 being dealt K♦K♠ and Exhot dealt A♦A♣.
This classic battle between Aces and Kings saw both players raising and getting their chip stacks all-in preflop.
The roller coaster action began when Pocket555 took the lead after spiking a King on the flop of 2♦ 9♦ K♣ .
The A♥ on the turn quickly saw Exhot regain the lead and seemingly avoid a bad beat tale. Before the 1,560 uBTC pot could be mentally added to their stack the river card would bring a much larger payout.
With only one out remaining the K♥ on the river would swing the hand back to Pocket555 and trigger the Bad Beat Jackpot!
For losing the hand with Aces Full of Kings Exhot won 146,634 μBTC (.146634 BTC)!
Pocket555 won the pot and a prize of 83,791 μBTC (.083791 BTC) for winning the hand with Quad Kings!
The other players at the table: StingerWorm, DeepFknValue, AbuJay and CrackeDeuces each won 15,710 μBTC (.015710 BTC) as their table share for being dealt in during the jackpot hand!
The Bad Beat Jackpot has been reseeded and is currently back over 95,000 μBTC (.095 BTC).
