    RTG Progressive Slot JackPot ???

    Random?

    Has anybody won one of these?

    Or can they tell me how they work?

    It just seems to be a counter that I'd like to have but have no control over.

    Random?

    Random?
    What generally happens with online "progressives", is that each casino puts a % of wagers into a central pot held by the software provider as a condition of their licensing deal. When it's hit (and it is supposedly random), the software provider provides the pot to the casino to pay the punter who won it.

    Meantime software providers like Cryptologic are phoning up the bank every 10 minutes to find out how much interest they earned yesterday on $4 million So any software providers reading this, if you need a reliable arbitrator to hold the money for you....

    Wow. Thanks.

    There's so much good stuff here.

    The $20 bets didn't hurt either.

    No posts since that one. Must be spending the $32K.

    What about the random Jackpots?

    brillant

    only one "serious" remark:

    The RTG jackpots are a bit different, each casino has their own ones and its supposed to be random if you hit one. I guess, its more likely the higher you bet.

    I won one of 8000 at a 10$ bet and some other ones at 5 $ bets. and one aganin at a 2$ bet.

    You ll find some screenshots in the winnerscreenshots...

    Random Jackpots

    I was told by an RTG manager that the size of the bet made no difference in the chances of hitting a random jackpot. Is this true? Who will ever know for sure-- Wouldn't it be cool if the casino would list the size of the bet that was placed that hit the random????
    I play the RTG Real Series slots almost exclusively now and my bet size is usually 40 cents. I would like to up the bet, but I can't afford to lose the money. I really just enjoy playing and having a chance of maybe someday hitting a biggie.
    There is another thread about the randoms so you might want to do a search for it. It was very interesting and someone did show a screenshot of a big random win.
    BTW- something that has bothered me about RTG casinos- some of the casinos list many winners hitting the random jackpots at around the $2,000 mark. Other casinos list very few winners but their random jackpot wins are $13,000 or higher. I prefer the casinos that give smaller jackpots more frequently 'cause it just seems that I'd stand a better chance at a jackpot with my low bets. Wishful thinking no doubt! LOL
    Anyways, GLGLGL to you and I hope you hit one of them elusive randoms soon!

    re

    I am curiouse myself as to if there has ever been a winner on the random in rtg history where someone was betting 40 cents. I play a dollar usually.
    Ihave played them for years and never hit a random . The only time I hit the random is in play mode playing 100 dollar a spin.

    Sometimes in real play I play 2 dollars, and seldom 5 dollars. I had a go at
    fruit frenzy at inet yesterday, its up to $25,000 . I won 100 bucks, too bad not the biggie. That wouldnt be a bad hit at all to hit that as your first random win.

    RTG Random Jackpots how do they work.

    Well last weekend I found out and I won $17,400 in a progressive jackpot and I was playing in auto play mode, while I was have my dinner.
    I came back and saw a message something like Auto Play stopped, Random Jackpot Won.Well I looked and all of a sudden I had heaps of money in my ac count.But there is one problem.As the last coupon I deposited with was a 10x max cask out, which most of the RTG Casinos are I was informed that 10x my deposit, is all I will recieve and I was told just to play out the money to build up Comp Points. Whow. So I am now as poor as I ever was and I email the casino to see if I could transfer some of the money to another account or find a way to at least get a better share of my money, but of course I have recieved no reply.I wonder just how often RTG Casinos get away with not playing out Jackpots, because of the rules with coupons.
    Has anybody else had a similar experience at all and if I try to contact the software manufacturer, how do I ? aussiekeith

    Unhappy How Random Jackpots in RTG Casinos Work

    They pay with any amount of lines or bets.
    The day I won I had been playing with all lines and bets from .20 up to $1.00.
    When I won the jackpot I was playing auto play and 8 lines with a 1 cent bet.

    They tell you to play it off to build comp points to cash in to have a max cashout attached to them too. Any casino that attaches a maximum cashout to anything is a scam to me, just stay away from them, evidently they're very worried about their money so much so as they're saying they're not going to pay you if you win, in other words they're saying I dare you to use a coupon or promotion and win.
