Million Dollar Jackpot Poker
You can win up to $1,000,000 with Jackpot Poker at Americas Cardroom! These lightning-fast Hyper-Turbo Sit & Go tournaments feature a randomly determined prize pool.
Jackpot Poker games are for 3 players and come with buy-ins of $5, $15, and $50. With 3-minute levels, you start with a 500-chip stack.
How To Play
Choose your desired buy-in and the number of tournaments to join, and you’ll get seated with two other players. A random draw will decide the prize pool jackpot. Once revealed, the prize pool will be visible to all participants, and the game will begin once the hands are dealt.
The Maximizer
Americas Cardroom’s new Maximizer feature helps you find tables quickly by automatically adding you to waiting lists and opening tables for you.
To use the Maximizer, click on the “Maximizer” tab in the Jackpots lobby, set your maximum buy-in and the number of tables. Mark the checkbox for your favorite buy-in, and the Maximizer will always save a table at that stake. Turn it on by sliding the red button, and the Maximizer will search for and reserve tables as they become available based on your criteria.
Jackpot Poker Prize Pools Explained
Remember, Jackpot Poker is a ‘winner-takes-all’ event. However, if the highest prize tiers are hit, a default distribution may occur, and players can negotiate a deal.

Disconnections and Sitting Out Policy
By participating in Jackpot Poker at Americas Cardroom, players accept potential risks stemming from internet connectivity issues.
If a player leaves a Jackpot Poker game before being eliminated, a “Take My Seat(s)” button will appear in the Jackpot Poker lobby, allowing them to return as long as the game is still in progress.
If all players disconnect at once, the Jackpot Poker game will be paused. The game will resume as soon as Americas Cardroom confirms all connections are restored.
If a Jackpot Poker game is canceled during play, the following steps will be taken:
- If the prize pool is less than three times the buy-in, each player’s buy-in will be refunded.
- If the prize pool is three times or more the buy-in and there’s no deal, the prize pool will be distributed based on chip count.
- If a deal was made in the Jackpot Poker game, the prize pool in play is 10% of the total prize pool. Each player gets the 30% deal amount, and the remaining 10% is distributed by chip count.
