A Couple Quick Tips
Bad Beat Jackpot Pokerbros
Right now, I'd have to say if you're going to play online, do so at BetOnline.ag. They have a large player database so the bad beat jackpot is constantly rising and falling. Of course, you want to play when it's peaking. BetOnline is also a poker site accepted from the US. There's really no point in playing in my opinion if the jackpot is low because we pretty much always have one site listed where the jackpot is over $100,000.
PokerStars or Full Tilt Jackpots
Because these two sites have the most players of any sites out there combined (even though they don't accept USA players), there is a real possibility for some mega jackpots to happen. It is something we've talked to Pokerstars and Full Tilt about having but at this time they are not adding any poker jackpot tables. Despite this, we still see demand because the jackpots could get into the 10,000,000 range if done properly, along with daily $1,000,000 jackpots. It is our intention to stay on top of these two sites to bring you the mega jackpots. Anyways, for now good luck on getting unlucky!
