Bad Beat Bonus?

14all

Do people think there should be a 'Bad Beat Bonus' and if so, how should it work?

For example - 50 big blinds if you lose when holding Quads or better. It might soften the blow of getting beat with such a strong hand!

It might stop people moaning about it. All players receive and dish out bad beats from time to time!

We just like to forget the ones where we benefit

i started a discussion about having a bad beat bonus about a month ago, other poker sites do it i would like to see skypoker do this too

How about a bad beat hall of fame which shows who has been ahead and lost the most?
There could be a weekly/monthly/annual leaderboard with prizes.

Not sure it would work if you were to win blinds or other chip values mid-tourney, as this would not represent the true tourney play..
