The Lose Criteria for the Bad Beat Jackpot is as follows
No committed pot amount is needed to make the Jackpot hand
The hand must go to showdown
Both the winner and the loser must use two hole cards to make the best 5 card hand combination.
Pocket pairs are required for winners/losers for four of a kind hands.
In the case of RIMT (Running it Multiple Times) only the first run will count towards the jackpot.
In the case of a Jackpot being won at the table, only players who were dealt hole cards will receive a share of the prize. (If a player is sitting out they will not be eligible for a share)
In Rush & Cash, the jackpot will not occur in tables with 5 or fewer dealt players.
