[jetset]

Interesting story - let's see what Party Gaming and Party Casino management have to say - we've placed enquiries with both.

On the subject of high rollers having better chances of hitting jackpots. I think the biggest failure here on the part of Party is that the Jackpots that are advertised as eligible for anyone at any bet size to win are really when it comes right down to it features rather than jackpots. That said they should NOT be inducing low rollers to try to hit these things. A true progressive Jackpot should not discriminate with bet size to the extent that we see here.

I am sorry, but I disagree. The most fair way for progressive jackpots is to have chance to win them propertional to bet size. This way payout% is the same for all bets. Progressive jackpots works the same way for MG and Intercasino. So if this highroller is betting 100$/spin she will win a lot of jackpots of course, but what you fail to realize is that she will actually build up the jackpots again at same rate.

In the above I assumed chance for winning was PROPORTIONAL to bet size. And it that case, everything is as it should be. But what could be happening is that Party casino favors the highrollers by having chance for winning the jackpot increases more than propertional with bet size.

Given this, the fact that Doreen H has been hitting nearly all the jackpots for what seems several days must be looked at (it must be putting customers off if they start thinking the game is rigged against them). I find it hard to believe a player can be running at $90 per spin for more than 3 days unless said player is finding the game is paying close on (or above!) 100% for their large bet size. This is a trap many sites fall into by displaying big payouts without also mentioning the winning stake. This can be seen with MG casinos who publish payouts from normal (non-progressive) gaming. One player dominating the tables is betting big, so the payouts look grand, but represent a more modest return on a bigger stake.

Overnight, while the rest of us in North America were sleeping Doreen H snagged 2 more jackpots and one just now. Granted 3 others were hit by people I've never seen before during that time. I agree that it must be a little more proportional to bet size than one would expect.

She just hit a big one again... $12, 122.34
