繁體中文Progressive Jackpots Explained
A progressive jackpot is a prize that grows over time until someone wins it. This guide explains how they work. Specific figures are shown in each game.
- A progressive jackpot is a prize that grows as a small part of each qualifying bet is added to it, until a player wins it and it resets.
- A local jackpot pools bets from one game or casino, while a network jackpot pools across many casinos, growing far larger.
- They may trigger randomly, through a bonus round, or by landing a specific combination.
How they grow
A small part of each qualifying bet is added to the jackpot, so it climbs as people play and resets when it is won. This is why progressives can reach very large amounts.
Local vs network jackpots
A local jackpot pools bets from one game or casino; a network jackpot pools across many casinos, growing far larger.
How they are won
Jackpots may trigger randomly, through a bonus round, or by landing a specific combination. The rules are in the game — see jackpot types.
Realistic expectations
Jackpot odds are very long, so treat the chance as a bonus, not a plan. Play within budget — see responsible gambling tools and how slots work.
