Caesars Entertainment’s record-breaking mega beat progressive poker jackpot strikes again!
Recently 102 players in poker rooms across Las Vegas celebrated as a king high straight flush beat quad jacks inside the Quad Resort & Casino poker room.
This is the fourth time the jackpot has hit since its January launch and the first time it occurred at the Quad.
In what was one of the most exciting Texas hold’em hands, Micah Kreischer from Lexington, Ohio, had pocket jacks while Omar Abu-Eid from Las Vegas, had the king and queen of clubs. The flop came out jack, nine, two; all clubs.
Abu-Eid had a king high flush and made a $20 bet. Kreischer called. The turn was a 10 of clubs, giving Abu-Eid a king high straight flush. He bet $95; Kreischer called.
The river was the jack of diamonds, giving Kreischer quad jacks. Abu-Eid pushed his entire chip stack into the pot. Kreischer immediately called the all-in.
Both players showed their cards and the room erupted as Kreischer hit the jackpot.
The Jackpot awards not only the losing and winning hand but all players actively playing in any of the participating Caesars Entertainment poker rooms.
The 102 players in Harrah’s Las Vegas, The Quad, Flamingo, Bally’s, Planet Hollywood, Caesars Palace and Rio poker rooms split $727,770.
Kreischer, having the losing hand, won $150,599 and winner Abu-Eid took home $77,771 while all other players received $4,994 for simply playing in the right room at the right time.
WPT: The World Poker Tour and Galaxy Gaming announced an exclusive licensing agreement in conjunction with the launch of a new table game that both companies believe will enjoy widespread success: Heads Up Hold ‘Em.
