Slot Machines News

well, that’s what the headline should read in the morning.  i snuck in some time to play tonight because usually this thing hits around the $100k mark.  now, it’s almost DOUBLE that, and i have some money kicking around in my Slotland account.

actually, i ran down and back up, and then down, and back up, and then down, and then back up AGAIN while playing their “Slotris” machine. it’s a cross between a slot machine, and tetris. i should review it some time. it’s a one of a kind machine, and you can only play it at slotland.

right now, as i’m typing, the jackpot is $199,756, so in less than $250 of growth, it’ll be at the $200,000 mark.  i’m actually thinking that’ll be a record for the casino, but i’m not totally positive.

i do know that i do NOT expect it to get much higher before someone finally lines up all the right symbols, and takes down a VERY NICE buy a car/pay off the house/college is paid for/let’s go to the islands for the summer kind of jackpot!

if you’ve never been to Slotland, it’s the strangest place.  you play right over the web, through your internet explorer, or firefox.  you don’t need to download anything, so it’s even, get this, Wii gaming console friendly.

and, the machines are set really, really loose.  they say 98%, and i believe them.  or at least that’s what my experience has been.  like tonight,  i spent half an hour chasing a jackpot, and i’m basically right where i started. 

no jackpot, but i won’t have to deposit on my next visit either. 

well, i’ll check in on the morrow, and expect to see either some happy, very recent winner, or a headline that reads that the Slotland progressive Jackpot has reached over the $200,000 mark.  and the good thing, you can win on any machine in the house.  it’s not like the jackpot is tied to one slot.  any slot can be the lucky one, so i can play whatever slot i like most.
