The jackpot pool at Playtech powered casinos have crossed the $3 million mark earlier this week. A progressive jackpot is where players play selected games and contribute to the climbing jackpot that is either randomly triggered or triggered by a certain winning combination. A progressive jackpot pool is the total of all progressive jackpots across the Playtech software network of casinos. So when a player chooses one of these games, they aren’t playing for $3 million, just a part of the large prize pool.
In this prize pool there aren’t any single huge jackpots up for grabs, and the biggest jackpots are coming from the Marvel Mystery jackpots. These jackpots are featured in the Marvel themed games like Hulk and Iron Man 2, and there are four tiers of progressive attached to the game. Ultimate power is the largest jackpot of the four, and is currently over $690,000, All of the Marvel themed games are connected to the same jackpots, across the whole network of Playtech powered casinos, and this jackpot is expected to be triggered soon.
The next jackpot in the pool is the Jackpot Darts games that are offered. The bet is as low as $3 and the jackpots are over $200k and $300k. There are two versions of these games and they can be found in the jackpot arcade section of your favourite Playtech online casino. The jackpots are triggered when the player hits three darts on the bull’s-eye, however if the player is unsuccessful at getting all three in the target they are awarded payouts according to the paytable. These games are much like the popular game of darts you would find at your local pub, just in virtual form. No player has ever won these jackpots so it’s too hard to estimate when it will be ready to go.
Gold Rally is another contributor the progressive jackpot pool. This is a classic Playtech slot machine and right now the jackpot is over $660k as of today. This jackpot has been hit for over $2 million dollars in the past, and not too long ago was hit for a $1.5 million. Industry experts say it’s best to wait to play this game as it hasn’t even began to reach its average hit amount.
Queen of the Pyramids is another 5-reel 9-payline slot powered by Playtech and has a fixed coin value. The jackpot is hit very often, at a rate of sometimes twice a week. The jackpot is beyond ready for a hit as it is already double of what the average is at $166k. All of these games can be found on the Playtech powered network of casinos, USA players are not accepted.
