Just how eye-watering are we talking about? Well, let’s start with an anonymous Finn who raked in an epic €17,861,800 with NetEnt’s Mega Fortune slot. Well, there is a good reason why the jackpots reach such astonishing levels. When you consider that some of the biggest jackpots have thousands of players from multiple countries spinning every moment of the day. Progressive jackpots are able to get so large because a percentage of every single bet is siphoned off to feed the pot. Then, the jackpot is reset to a seed amount and the journey repeats. Instead of a fixed prize, a progressive jackpot continues to climb in value until one lucky player wins it. A slot displays a fixed amount and players spin in the hope of winning it. The key to landing these life-changing piles of cash is with progressive jackpot slots. Now, top slot payouts reach staggering 8 figure sums. The most you could hope for is landing your favourite flavour. Yes, the first fruit slots, literally dispensed fruity gum instead of coins. Back in the day, right back when slots first burst onto the scene, prozes came in the form of flavoured gum.
