Carbon Poker Bad Beat Jackpot nears $1 million

The bad beat jackpot on Carbon Poker sits at nearly $1 million. The record breaking jackpot is expected to cross the $1 million dollar mark within the next 48 hours.

According to Carbon Poker, “This is the largest Bad Beat Jackpot of any poker room currently online. Any player that plays a bad beat table in the 24 hours [after] it hits the million dollar mark will get a coupon entry into a Bad Beat Jackpot Freeroll that has a prize pool of $1,000.” Carbon Poker will also begin to run bad beat sit and go tournaments when the jackpot reaches $1 million and will run for 24 hours. At the time of writing, the prize pool for a bad beat sits at $989,744.40.

No they didn't, but I can't see it being very high. I'm sure they'll send out an email once they hit the $1 million mark.
