Thanks to the Natural8 Bad Beat Jackpot, bad luck can sometimes be ��good��!
One player discovered this in an outrageous fashion after an incredible run of two Bad Beat Jackpots in just two days. Natural8 player ��Stickingsimba�� ended up with a combined reward of $698.11 - all while playing at stakes as low as $0.01/$0.02!
What is the Natural8 Bad Beat Jackpot?
Bad Beat Jackpots offer players a form of consolation when their seemingly great and nearly unbeatable hand is defeated. If all of the necessary criteria are met, players will earn a cut of the consolation prize pool. This prize is not only for the unlucky recipient of the bad beat; everyone else at the table also takes a share of the pot.

Quads Over Quads Benefits ��Stickingsimba��
The story began with ��Stickingsimba�� grinding away at the $0.01/$0.02 Rush & Cash No-Limit Hold��em tables. It was just another session until he looked down at a pair of deuces in the small blind.
To cut a long story short, ��Stickingsimba�� and his opponent would both flop a set, similar to a hand that took place between Garrett Adelstein and Wesley Flan on Hustler Casino Live.
And like the hand between the high stakes poker players, all the money would end up in the middle on the river. ��Stickingsimba�� must have initially felt sick losing to quads over quads but as mentioned this was, however, a happy occasion for ��Stickingsimba��. Natural8 players qualify for the Bad Beat Jackpot when they lose with aces full of tens or better. As a result, they bagged themselves a tidy sum of $122 while a combined $80.09 was dished out between the rest of the table.

��Stickingsimba�� Gets Another Bankroll Boost
Not many people can say that a bad beat propelled them to play higher stakes, but that was the case for ��Stickingsimba��. Bypassing $0.02/$0.05, ��Stickingsimba�� jumped into the Rush & Cash No-Limit Hold��em fields once again, this time at the $0.05/$0.10 level.
On this occasion, the microstakes player would make second pair on the flop before hitting the turn and river to make a full house. Unbeknownst to ��Stickingsimba��, their opponent flopped topped pair and also went runner-runner to end up on the river with the stone-cold nuts.
As expected, all the money piled in on the final street of action and ��Stickingsimba�� was once again greeted by lady luck. Thanks to a second bad beat, ��Stickingsimba�� received an even bigger Bad Beat Jackpot payout of $576.11. The players at the table also benefitted again, seeing $933.26 being shared amongst the players.
Interestingly, ��Stickingsimba�� was never ahead at any point in this hand and only ahead on one street out of the two. However, the rules of the Natural8 Bad Beat Jackpot are clear. If you lose with aces full of tens or better at a Hold��em table, you are eligible for the prize.
