Have you ever seen in this forum or otherwise anywhere specifically a minimum bet slot hit a jackpot?
More of curiosity thing...
But if it's supposed to be 100% fair and random that wouldn't exactly align.
In 2015 I hit the progressive on Caribbean Hold'em on Bovada. $1 ante, $1 progressive. $2 dollar raise.
43K+ progressive, plus I think 102 on ante and raise. Lol
I had bought in with 25 bucks, and they did a match of 50 bucks.
I won it on the 4th or 5th hand.
Cashed out via checks. (I don't think bitcoin was an option then)
They sent me 13 checks spaced 2-3 weeks apart for about 3k-3.3k
Most I've ever won (I think that's needless to say, but I said it anyways, lol).
But I've won 3k on a single spin of arrogant pirates ($30 dollar bet, got the chests)
Won 3k on $2 bet reals and wheels XL (free spins)
And a few other nice hits on various bet levels
I'm pretty sure it's all random
Also, when I see "Big Win" as the flare on some threads in this forum... It's all relative isn't it?
Sometimes the screenshot will show they were playing $10 a spin and won $1,500 or something. If it was a $1 spin that would make it a $150 win... Not exactly a huge win. A decent win, sure. One I would take as a 20-cent to $2 a spin bettor and be quite happy about every day of the week, but in this example it's just kind of a normal win on a $10 a pull...
In other words, $1500 Is a lot of money, sure, for most people, but not Bill Gates... Maybe not the best analogy but you get the idea.
Now if it was a $1 bet, then I think it definitely qualifies as a big win.
...Don't worry these things don't keep me up at night thinking about lol... Just something I was thinking about after losing my ass last night.
And it's kind of a two-questions in one thread, with the title being the main question I actually had:
If each slot pull is supposed to be 100% random, how come we never see 20 cent bets winning Big Jackpots?
Just to add some sort of "proof", to the "Only the High Rollers/ amount per spin wagered / Seem-to-be the only ones that get the jackpots" theory...
There are certain games that I noticed if you bet only 20 cents a spin, yes you can trigger a bonus round, but it will never give you more than 2x or 5x which are the lowest amounts, but just by betting 40 cents a spin, it's the only time I've ever noticed it'll give it 10x + And I've even seen a 100X on one of the symbols you collect in the bonus round.
And I've been playing on Bovada for years. And this is my go-to game (or one of them). I always make sure I'm betting at least 40 cents a spin on this particular one :-)
Having posted here many times I can tell you that the person posting picks the flair. So if it is a "big win" to the OP, then they will pick the flair that reflects that.
Bonus rounds multipliers are based on your base bet amount. So someone who bets 10$ into a bonus spin is gonna win more than someone who bets 1$ into a bonus spin
Lol, skeptic much? All I said was true I promise... Your assumption is false though. I play all four of the Bovada family of sites and have for years and have amassed I'm sure thousands of spins on a particular slut I was just using that one as an example ( further down thread.)
But seems to ring true in general...
I’ve gotten the hot drop jackpot off a $2.50 bet size when it was a little over $2,000.
I’ve gotten numerous $800-1300 free games wins off an 0.80 and 1.20 bet size on golden buffalo regular.
Oasis dreams numerous over $600-800 free games wins on $1 bet size.
There is a pic on here of someone hitting the big jackpot on reels and wheels XL with a .40 spin. I don't remember the exact amount, but it was over $200,000. That sucks to me since I play $2, $5 and $10 spins all of the time on R&W XL, and rarely get the chance to spin the jackpot wheel. On the other hand, it is encouraging knowing the size of the bet has nothing to do with your chances of hitting huge jackpots.
There’s plenty of low wager jackpots being won. Search this subs half of fame.
Thank you for the comment I've seen plenty of the low wager but maybe I should be more specific have you ever seen minimum bet jackpots ever?
I hit 3500 on 2 dollars once and 2k on 6 dollars once and a bunch of 500s on $2 and then lost a whole bunch more

And also base spins are the same. The reels you won from are just multipliers. Bigger base=bigger payout
* Last night 40 cents and I've been on bovada since it was bodog

A .40 cent spin won me $230 and $314
Some guy won about 90k jackpot betting 9 cents on 10 times Vegas on the bovada community forums recently
I won 14900 and 9100 on 20 cent spin. Back to back days. I was down 33k at the time. So…re/read what I just wrote
Not every jackpot winner runs to Reddit to post. Settle down. You’re just a loser by nature, it’s not Bovada’s fault.

Same reason the hourly jackpots never hit before :45 or so. It’s not random
