Hit The Jackpot In WPT® GO Cash Games

Big hands deserve big rewards and that’s exactly what you’ll get thanks to WPT®GO cash game Jackpots.

Whether you make a monster hand and hit the High Hand Jackpot, or suffer a cold deck situation that triggers the Falling Mars Jackpot, you could qualify for a big windfall!

Making Quads (4-of-a-kind) or better is key to hitting the Jackpots. Win with Quads of better and you qualify for the High Hand Jackpot. Lose with Quads or better and you trigger WPT®GO badbeat jackpot, Falling Mars!

High Hand Jackpot

  • Must use both hole cards
  • Win with Quads (4-of-a-kind) or better
  • Payouts vary depending on hand strength:

- Receive 20% of the corresponding Jackpot by making a Royal flush

- 10% by making a straight flush 

- 2% by making better Quads (4-of-a-kind)

  • Hand does not need to go to showdown
     

Falling Mars Jackpot

  • Both players must use both hole cards
  • Lose with Quads (4-of-a-kind) or better
  • Losing player receives 50% of the corresponding Jackpot
  • Hand must go to showdown

 

As the full jackpot is never won, there’s always some money in the pot, with 1bb being added every time a player wins 20bb or more in a hand. Each NLHE cash game buy-in level has its own Jackpot prize pool from which both Jackpots are paid.

Should your hand be good enough to trigger either bonus, with Quads, a Straight Flush or a Royal flush, the corresponding Jackpot will automatically drop and you’ll receive your extra winnings at the table instantly.
