Royal Flush Jackpot

Omaha players looking to download free poker should try UB. They started a unique Royal Flush promo that is similar to a bad beat jackpot. Basically there is a progressive Royal Flush Jackpot, and players receive cash bonuses for hitting royal flushes. Pretty cool way to reward someone for the most awesome hand in poker.

If you have tried using the PartyPoker bonus code, you will know that certain tables offer the chance to win a bad beat jackpot. 50% of the jackpot is given out when someone loses a hand with quad 8s or better, and players dealt into the bad beat hand also win a percentage. You will see that the Royal Flush promo is very much like this bad beat promo. The royal flush winner receives 50% of the jackpot, the players that participated in the hand receive 25%, and the last 25% is split amongst the other players at Jackpot tables of the same stake. At UB you will have more chances to rake in the dough than at the majority of the other US poker sites!

An important fact to know is that only 65% of the jackpot is handed out when a royal flush is made. The remaining 25% and 10% go to the next Jackpot and UB administration respectively. People that prefer the PokerStars bonus code might dislike that UB keeps a tenth of the jackpot, but we can’t really expect UB to facilitate this for free.

To be eligible for the Jackpot, you need to receive hands at a Royal Flush Jackpot table. Free poker no downloads is a feature of UB, so you can play these tables even if you don’t want to download the software. The Jackpot is built up by taking 50 cents from every raked hand at these tables.

Mac poker fans excited about the Royal Flush promotion should take note of a few conditions when it comes to winning the Jackpot. At least four people had to have been playing the hand, and the winning hand must be seen at show down. Players sitting out at the time of the royal flush hand are not eligible for any share of the prize pool. If two royal flushes hit at the same time on the site, the hand that started first will be deemed the winner. I have to say that if this happened to me and I did not receive anything for my royal flush, I would pick a slot machine download over a poker download for a while to get over my tilt.

If you are sick of Holdem and want to give Omaha a try, definitely consider UB. It is comforting that you are not required to download PokerStars to get action at Omaha tables. We don’t want a PokerStars monopoly or anything!
