PlayNow and Espacejeux Award $600,000 Bad Beat Jackpot

The Canadian Poker Network has awarded its largest bad beat jackpot since 2011. On the afternoon of Nov. 10, 2015, nearly $600,000 was paid out to a $0.50/$1 table with Quebec’s Gontran Larose collecting the largest portion for losing with quad queens to Kelly Dickson's quad kings.

Serving PlayNow B.C., PlayNow Manitoba, and Espacejeux in Quebec, the Canadian Poker Network shares players on Canada’s only provincially licensed online poker sites. Some of their cash-game tables are eligible for the ever-growing bad beat jackpot, and that was where Gontran Larose earned $298,299.
