Stolls (left) Wins the Hand, While Arora (right) Wins the Jackpot
Losing with quad 6s never felt so good for Alok Arora (Charlestown, WV), who is Borgata's latest Bad Beat Jackpot winner.
Arora takes home $20,001 because his 6♦ 6♠ was beaten by Herbert Stolls (Jamaica, NY) who hit a straight flush holding 7♥ 8♥ on a board of 7♣ 9♥ 10♥ 6♥ 6♣.
"A miracle just happened," says Stolls, while on the phone with family. "I just won $10,000," his share of the $50,000 mini Bad Beat Jackpot for winning the hand.
The other seven players in the hand split $20,000 and earn the table share of $2,857.
Norman Michalek (Westfield, NJ), one of the lucky seven and usually a tournament player, debated about playing in today's 11 am event, but decided to play in the $2-$5 cash game instead.
The main jackpot resets to $164,859 and the next next time the jackpot hits the all time total paid out will top $15,000,000.
