Progressive (slots)

The amount of the jackpot is set at a base amount and increases with each coin that is inserted. Sometimes the potential jackpot is limited to a maximum at which point it converts to static. And sometimes the sky is the limit! It depends on the machine. The jackpot is always growing, and large payouts result…when they payout! The rule of thumb is: the bigger the jackpot, the less likely you are to win it. Goes with the territory. The payout is less often, and the number of people who win is not as high. But on the other hand, the money is greater.
