Carbon Poker (www.carbonpoker.com) has today announced it has given away its first Caribbean Stud jackpot. The player, Yvetje, won $20,318.75 on a 20c jackpot bet placed on 2 September, 2007 at 17:22 GMT.

Yvetje, a female player from Limburg, Belgium has been with Carbon Poker since 2005.

"Caribbean Stud is one of the latest additions to our software, and to have the top prize go off really shows you that anyone can have huge win," said Shane Bridges, Carbon Poker's Media Manager. "We introduced jackpots to add the excitement of huge instant wins to our poker experience, and what could be more exciting than a player taking down the entire jackpot so quickly!"

Yvetje was playing the $1 minimum Caribbean Stud table, she had paid her $1 ante and placed her jackpot bet of 20 cents when she was dealt her spades royal flush. As the dealers hand didn't qualify she was just paid 1 to 1 on her ante, but her 20 cent jackpot bet paid out a $20318.75 jackpot win.

"Knowing this jackpot went to a player thats been with us for such a long time, and loves playing all forms of poker with us, really makes this a special win," Bridges added. "But at the same time, anyone can take down a jackpot, you don't need to be the next poker star to win big at our Caribbean Stud tables, Yvetje has proved that."
