You’ll hit the Short Deck Jackpot by making one of the Jackpot hands (Flush, Four of a kind, Straight Flush, or a Royal Flush) but only with the following requirements.
- Commit at least 15 antes to the pot before making the jackpot hand.
- Use two hole cards to make the jackpot hand.
- Use a pocket pair to make a Four of a kind, jackpot hand.
As long as you have satisfied these conditions, you will hit the Jackpot, regardless of who wins the hand and even if you decide to fold.
