In Namur, the following Bad Beat Jackpot rules apply
10% of the jackpot remains to start the next jackpot. The remainder goes to the loser of the hand and therefore the bad beat receiver (50%), the winner of the hand (30%) and the remaining players at the table (20%). Depending on the size of the jackpot, different rules apply to qualify for a bad beat.
Up to €4,999, you must lose the pot with a straight flush of at least ten (for example 
).
From €5,000 to €9,999, the losing hand must be at least a straight flush (for example 
).
From $10,000 to $14,999, the minimum losing hand is four tens (for example 
vs 
).
From $15,000 to $19,999, a five-of-a-kind (quads) is sufficient as a losing hand (for example 
vs 
).
From €20,000 upwards, any four (quads) is sufficient as a losing hand, so the minimum requirement is then [62] 
as a losing hand.
