Progressive jackpots

As well as the normal payouts, progressive machines feature a jackpot that keeps getting bigger and bigger according to how many coins are paid in to the machine. For every coin that is paid in (on a single machine, a linked network of machines in different locations, or by players of the same online gaming software) a percentage goes towards increasing the size of the progressive jackpot.

However, it is worth noting that over a given number of pay cycles the total payback from the individual machine or network including the progressive jackpot will meet the manufacturers’ specified percentages and thus comply with gaming regulations.

On that basis alone you can guess that the return from regular play is going to be less than on most other type of slots. Unless you are a top line hunter and don’t care how much money you lose, this would be reason enough to avoid progressive machines.

You should always observe the climbing totals. If the figures are rolling upwards at a speed faster than people are inserting coins into the slots you can see there must be other machines in the pool. If those increases are much faster other casinos are probably linked into the system.
