I'm going to the HPT next week, but haven't been been up there in awhile, so can you tell me what the qualifying hand is for BBJ. In the old days at the Lodge I believe the qualifying hand (losing hand) had to be quad 8's or better. Also, is there that rule that a certain amount of money needs to be in the pot?
Thanks.
No, not $2M. Unless the BBJ has been hit in the past few weeks, there are 3 jackpots, each with >$500K. They would bump the 1st level up $50K (to $550K) then the 2nd one, which was at $500K, would climb to $550K, then the 3rd. Then they would start adding $$$ to level one again.
Qualifying hand is any quads beaten, and > $50 in the pot (seems trivial even for the 4/8 limit game to get this).
Sorry I don't know what the BBJ is now, must be ~$700K if $2M has been taken off the table. No info on website
