PartyPoker bad beat jackpot poised to break million dollar mark (August 14, 2008)
The bad beat jackpot at PartyPoker is on the verge of setting an all-time online jackpot record.
As of this writing, the jackpot stands at over $970,000 and is growing at a pace to break
the million dollar mark within hours.
The sky-high jackpot has created a mad scramble to capture the prize. PartyPoker player counts are
up over 10% from last week, negating the effects of the summer slowdown normally seen at this time of year.
The previous record for an online bad beat jackpot is $996,115.28,
set recently by Absolute Poker.
