More Reasons to Show Down the Royal Flush!
Ultimate Bet is one of the best Mac poker sites for PLO. They have a new Royal Flush promotion that is similar to a bad beat jackpot. They made a progressive Royal Flush Jackpot, and players that hit royal flushes receive a cash bonus. It is nice to hit the best hand in poker, but it is even nicer to hit it when there is extra cash involved.
If you are familiar with a Lucky Ace Poker download, you might have tried playing on the bad beat jackpot tables. Someone losing a hand with quad 8s or better wins 50% of the jackpot, and a percentage is also given to the other players that participated in the bad beat hand. The Royal Flush promo works in similar fashion. The person with the royal flush gets half the jackpot, 25% goes to the players at the table where the royal flush was hit, and the other quarter is split amongst the other players at Jackpot tables of the same stake. A promo like this gives players more opportunities to receive cash than at some of the other poker rooms!
An important fact to know is that only 65% of the jackpot is handed out when a royal flush is hit. The remaining 25% and 10% go to the next Jackpot and UB administration respectively. If you have experience with a Fulltiltpoker download, you might complain that UB is raking a tenth of the jackpot, but the folks at UB need to get paid somehow too!
To be eligible for the Jackpot, you need to receive hands at a Royal Flush Jackpot table. Flash Texas Holdem is a feature of UB, so you do not even need to download a program to give these games a shot. These tables contribute 50 cents per hand to the Jackpot.
There are a couple other conditions to keep in mind for winning the Royal flush Jackpot on this poker site. The Royal Flush hand must have at least four participants, and the hand must go to show down. If you were sitting out when the Royal was won, you will not receive a share of the winnings. If two Royal Flush Jackpot tables get dealt a royal flush at the same time, the table that started the hand first will win the Jackpot. I have to admit that if I hit a royal in the hand that started second, I would probably stick to my free slots download for a while because I would be so upset!
If you are sick of Holdem and want to give Omaha a try, definitely consider UB. It is nice to know that you do not have to download Full Tilt Poker to try out the Omaha games. We don’t want a Full Tilt and PokerStars monopoly or anything!
