Bad-Beat Side-Bet
Overview
A bad-beat side-bet is a side-bet that rewards players for losing with good hands.
Bad-beat side-bets are created from the tournament side-bet panel and edited in the bad-beat side-bet dialog.
You have two types of bad-beat side-bets at your disposal:
- Public Bad-Beat: All players are eligible for reward.
- Private Bad-Beat: Only players that have opted in are eligible for reward.
Refer to the side-bet topic for further discussion on public vs. private side-bets.
Attributes
Aside from the standard side-bet attributes (see the side-bet topic), bad-beat side-bets also have the following attributes:
- Payout plan: Your way of determining how the prize pool for this side-bet should be distributed. You define the number of spots to pay and what percentage of the side-bet pool should go to each spot. The percentages must add up to 100%.
- Win candidates: Your way of keeping track of the participants who are candidates for receiving a portion of the side-bet prize pool. The candidates are ranked in order of how they performed. You can edit the ranking and even note that multiple players have tied for a position. Each candidate has a "hand" attribute that lets you denote what they did to qualify.
