If you want to have a chance at winning the High Hand Jackpot it will cost $2. You need 4 of a kind or a straight flush to win the High Hand Jackpot
 

Viper won the Jackpot of $38 with a straight flush. $2 was collected again from the remaining players. ojohno won the next Jackpot of $44 with 4 aces. Nothing more was collected so we have a Jackpot carry over of $0
 

Once someone collects the Jackpot, we will collect another $2 from everyone for a new Jackpot if there’s a sizeable number of players left. It is always optional whether players choose to pay into the Jackpot or not. If a player chooses not to pay into a Jackpot, then that player will not be able to collect on any part of that Jackpot, even after it rolls over.
