A “bad beat” is a poker term used for an occurrence when a strong poker hand loses to an even stronger poker hand. When the qualifying bad beat hand was dealt at Dakota Dunes Casino, there were eight players in the hand. During the hold’em round, player one from Regina was dealt A-Q and player two from Saskatoon was dealt pocket jacks. The flop was dealt A-Q-J with a jack on the turn. Another ace on the river gave the Regina player a full house versus the Saskatoon player’s quad jacks, making everybody in the hand a winner in Saskatchewan’s largest bad beat jackpot win!
