    So I was reading an article on PokerNews.com and apparently the badbeat jackpot in AC is over $700,000. It's reported that
    Caesars Atlantic City, Bally’s Atlantic City, Harrah’s Resort Atlantic City, and Showboat Atlantic City properties are pooled in the jackpot.

    I'll be in AC this upcoming weekend for a bach. party and was wondering if the Tropicana or Borgata are included in this pool? Are they owned by any of these resort groups?

    I'll be staying at Borgata, but I assume a lot of fish and players in general will be chasing the BB jackpot, and wanted to get in on the action. Let me know if you guys know anything about it.

    TIA!

    Bally’s AC. Caesars AC. Harrah’s Resort. Showboat AC.
    The Bad Beat jackpots at the four Caesars Entertainment properties have combined into one multi-casino Bad Beat Jackpot that patrons at all four properties will compete for.

    Biggest player pool would be Caesars/Harrah's, worst players would be Showboat, and the smallest stakes would be Bally's. All of them will have 1/2 running, Caesars and Harrah's will prob have a couple 2/5 games running with the BBJ attracting so many players, and Bally's has 1/3 and also the only 1/1 game in town(think it's the only one anyways).

    Hope this helps and glgl!!!

    I am going to AC tomorrow, I think I'll try Harrahs' for the first time (normally I go to the Taj or the Borgata).

    Caesars Atlantic City, Bally’s Atlantic City, Harrah’s Resort Atlantic City, and Showboat Atlantic City


    ...nope, borgata or tropicana don't appear to be in that list...so i'd go with...no, they're not part of the jackpot

    go to harrah's, by far the nicest of the listed casinos (in the bad beat jackpot at least)

    OMFG

    I did go to Harrah's and I come sfclose.

    I raise pf to $12 with TcKc. 2 callers. Flop 9cJcQc!

    I check, one guys shoves ~ $80, other guy folds. He has 99, we have 2 draws for the jackpot.

    Missed it obviously.

    The Jackpot hit on Monday. I was there all weekend playing. My buddy stayed monday and was at the table that hit. It sucks to be at the table that hits and have to share with the other casinos and not get a table share. The Jackpot was over $780k and he only walked away with $958.

    If by just hit, you mean it hit Monday, 3 days ago, then yes, it just hit.
