Jessica looked at me like I had 4 heads too when I told her about it. We really do have piss-poor vocabulary. Okay, here it goes.

Showboats Bad Beat Jackpot for poker is reaching astronomical status. It's up to $182,533.00 and counting.

Bad Beat Jackpot is paid when a hand of Full House, Aces full of Jacks or better, loses to a bigger hand at showdown. Both of the hole cards of the winning hand and losing hand must be in play. 50% of the jackpot is paid to the loser of the hand, 25% paid to the winner of the hand, and 25% is divided between all other players dealt into that hand. (copied and pasted)

I vow to be a part of it, somehow, someway. Preferably on the losing end of it.
