If you are really interested in how you can win a jackpot online, just check out one of the many casino, bingo, poker, sports betting and arcade games sites and look at some of the jackpots available. It is unbelievable the variety of games you can play these days and win, even skills and arcade games have prize money in them.
The PJP or progressive jackpot prize is probably the biggest prize that any player could ever win. This applies to both land and online gambling and this prize has made for quite a lot of rather rich people. Many online gamblers have changed their lives because of winning. Just as an example, I took one online gaming site; it is a site which is a favourite in the UK for both bingo and casino games.
The they happen to display their big winners on the home page, together with photo, cheque and testimonial. What I picked up was, at Jackpot Joy, Jennifer J won £168 890 playing Diamond Bonanza, Emira B won £965 728 playing Deal or No Deal, Michael L won £163 574 playing Full House bingo and Paul M won £1.4 million playing Deal or No Deal. All of these games have one thing in common; they are linked to progressive jackpot prizes.
A PJP is seeded with a basic amount of money, take Clover Rollover for example, this is £10 000. People play and if they don’t win the prize money becomes more and more well-funded, it rolls over to make a larger prize available to other players. This continues and the jackpot prize money can become an off the wall amount.
What very few people know, is that at online casino’s it is not only the slots games or bingo games which have progressive jackpot prizes. Many other games have these also; this includes video poker and blackjack, games such as baccarat as well as others. There are certain criteria attached to winning a PJP, so if you choose a game because of the progressive jackpot prize, make sure you get the best value for money with the biggest chance of winning.
Other jackpots include guaranteed prize money and this is money which must be won in a particular game even if there is a prize split, these are good games to choose also. Then there is a multiplier, if you play on a slots game and a maximum bet costs you £2 for the opportunity to win a 100 x multiplier on your wager, look for a game which costs you £2 for a maximum bet and offers you the opportunity to win a 10 000 x multiplier on your wager. Can you see the difference? It is all in the jackpot!
