Slotland Progressive Jackpot Hit Again - 08-22-08

August 22 - It's taken a little longer than usual but Slotland's progressive jackpot has just been hit for $168,947. A player known as "MRSSMITHS" won the jackpot playing the Booster slot machine.

Historically, Slotland's progressive jackpot is hit fairly regularly - about every six weeks - for just over $100,000. Lately, it's taking a little longer to be hit but the last few winners have won much bigger jackpots.

The progressive can be played on any of the unique slot machines and video poker games on the Slotland.com web site. Most of the games are also available on mobile phones and PDAs where they are tied into the same progressive jackpot. The next big winner could be at their computer or anywhere they take their mobile phone.

"I think a lot of people thought our progressive jackpot would be won after it hit the $100,000 mark," said Martin Smith of Slotland. "Every day that it kept going up and up without being won just amazed us!"

Booster is a three-wheel, single-payline slot machine game with a special wild "boost" symbol. Just prior to the booster symbol appearing, the game is interrupted and players are given the option of keeping their current bet or boosting it tenfold. Needless to say this can really "boost"  your winnings. But there is another great feature in this game. No bet is ever totally lost on t the Booster game. Every lost bet is added to a special pooled fund. The fund can be cashed anytime for ten percent of its value, or players can choose to try to recover ALL of their bets on a special win/lose spin. Booster can also be played on Slotland's mobile platform.

All of Slotlan'd games are tied into a single progressive pool, including Booster.

The previous big winner at Slotland  was a Canadian player who won the biggest ever progressive jackpot ever: $195,083 (€126,910). He was playing Treasure Box. The biggest win prior to that was  for $179,166 on the Golden 8 slot machine last May.

Re-set at $50,000 after each win, Slotland.com's progressive jackpot is already back up to nearly $100,000 (€45,000).
