Congrats!!!!
 
That’s the new one. They keep a reserve and after it hits it resets to $160k (I think). It was at like $262k when we hit.
Aye, drinks are on you when you come over. Congrats dude, nice score!
 
Been sneaking away to Parx on slow work days and today was no exception. The only difference is that I had the hand of my life and binked a straight flush vs quad 6s. The win was good for 20% of the BBJ.

1/3 NLHE
Hero in the BB 5s7s
Folds around to hijack, makes it $12
CO calls $12
Folds to hero, call the $12

3 players

10c 3s 4s

Flop gets checked

Turn is 6s

Hero checks
HJ bets $20
CO calls $20
Hero raises to $50
HJ folds
CO calls $50

River 6d

Hero makes it $80
CO goes all-in
Hero calls

It took a bunch of luck as well as a questionable flop check by me, but it got there in the end.

First time hitting a straight flush using both hole cards and first time being involved in a bad beat jackpot hand.

Woah, congrats! Table must of went nuts :) that’s a decent profit for $1/$3 :)

Question (not meant to be rude): why did it pay out at 20% of BBJ? Straight Flush > Quads is way high up there and both used hole cards. Only higher is Royal > Straight?

Not rude at all. Every room does it a little differently, but at Parx 40% of the jackpot goes to the losing hand (quad 6s), 20% to the winning hand (my sf) and the remaining 40% gets split amongst the rest of the table.

Loser got around 104k, I got 52k, and the rest of the table received about 15k each for being dealt in.
 
Got it… also for some reason I was thinking as the Hero you’d get more and was expecting ~50%. Now realize clearly the villain gets the majority, then hero/table.

Awesome story and thanks for sharing. What a hit :)

Left out of this equation is that the hero also wins the pot that they were both all in.
 
Went to cash-in my 5 x $5 chips today - Sat at 1/2, while on the list for 2/5. Called my name for 2/5 just over an hour of playing 1/2 - decided to stay at 1/2 instead, 1 hour, 20 minutes later...

In for $ 240 total out for $ 877. Had to color up during the session, the red chip wall was getting unmanageable :(/:), kinda a Good news/Bad news thing.

Chip wall with big chips in the back is a serious pro-dick move. :mad:
 
So it begins. In for $300

Was definitely a day of ups and downs. Played ~13 or 14 hours of poker. Bad all in run out on AK v 55 (A9A 4 and he says "you've got me, I just have a pair of 5s" as the dealer is putting out the 5 on the river for their boat) about halfway through or so had me down ~$400 before I managed to claw back up. Did not remember to take a picture of the stack on the way out.

In for $600, out for $502
 
That’s cool - did you get any Bradley dollars?
No Bradley dollars for me unfortunately. I ran pretty cold when he got to the table except one hand where I folded 97 off in early position. Flip came 992. Turn was 9. River was a 2 and he went all in against one other player who called and they chopped. Would have been nice…
