'Congratulations to all Carbon Poker players who made this a part of history and share in the jackpot of almost $1,200,000, however, the fun is not over, the bad beat has been reseeded and is already sitting at $240,000.' commented Jay Manning, a CarbonPoker.com spokesman. 'We are thrilled that the Bad Beat has gone off and we have set a new bar for the industry. In all, five of the seven cards can be used. This means that each player can form the best possible five-card hand from their two hole cards and the five community cards on the table. Carbon poker is not being charged with any wrongdoing. They have operated ethgically and honestly and therefore are not in the same situation as Full Tilt Poker, Absolute Poker, UB.com and PokerStars.
We never envisaged the Carbon Poker Bad beat would take so long to hit, after all we have the lowest qualifying hand anywhere online', said Manning. Currently, this is the lowest qualifying hand for a Carbon Poker bad beat in the online industry.
