Meanwhile, at the cash tables…

2014/08/30 10:39pm by

It’s almost as if it’s a new trend! For the second festival in a row, the Primary Bad Beat Jackpot has been hit on one of the cash tables, while the Main Event is in play.

Alecsei Veitzman was holding 8 of Spades 8 of Hearts when the flop came 10 of Diamonds 8 of Diamonds 8 of Clubs, but once the 6 of Diamonds turn hit, his hand was second best to Geovanni Stephen’s straight flush, whose hole cards were 7 of Diamonds 9 of Diamonds. After the 9 of Hearts fell on the river and both players opened their hands, a rumble took over the entire club as the table realized what just happened: the Primary Bad Beat Jackpot of $277,243 was just hit!
