Betting Enough To Be Eligible For Progressive Slot Jackpots
One of the saddest sights I’ve seen in a casino came when I was just getting off an elevator, coming down from my hotel room.

It was a four-reel mechanical game in which four blue 7s was the big winner for a progressive jackpot.

“9-6” Isn’t the Magic Number in Every Video Poker Game
The game that put video poker on the map in the 1980s was “Jacks or Better.” And as it gained in popularity, the word spread that the best games had “9-6” pay tables, meaning they paid 9-for-1 on full houses and 6-for-1 on flushes.
