    Maybe, maybe not. You'll never know unless you see a slot tech show you.

    Chance of hitting it = must be same at both (assuming they're on the same progressive link).

    Payback/return on machine = it can be different.

    The money won from the wide area progressives is chopped up between the manufacturers like IGT and the casinos. Consequently these games are seldom above 90% payback to the players.

    DRich has good information. He's an industry insider. I think he is a slot game designer. He's a member here so perhaps he could tell exactly what he does in the industry.

    Very long but profitable day...I started with $500 on $1 progressive which was $4,876.23 Double Double.. I got 4-6's within a few hands then got 4-9's kept going got 4-3's no kicker and 4-4's with kicker.. After 3 hours cashed out with $2,200 that's a $1,700 profit.. Had lunch at Bobbys Burger.. Went to Ultimate Hold Em table bought in for $1,500.. Got quad 8's and a straight flush over 2 1/2 hours.. Cashed out with $4,200

    With a nice cushion played Double Top Dollar for $20 a pull made $600 in 45 mins

    Final machine $5 Quick Hits it's $45 a pull got two hand pays $5,423 and $3,700

    Top a nice day watching the Bengals lose in final seconds... Truly a wonderful day

    Are you talking about "must hit by" slots or regular slots and video poker? Because if you are talking about regular slots and video poker there is no such thing as a "full machines" or machines that are due to hit.

    If you really believe a machine is "due" head over to Caesars Palace where the last of a three-reel Red-White-Blue kiosk of progressive slot machines sits with a jackpot of about $400-thou waiting to be hit. It's been "due" for more than the past ten years. By the way, the progressive amount has been frozen and has stopped growing. What remains is the "players' money" from the old progressives. It's $3 per play.

    I wasn't talking about must hit slots... On the $1 Double Double Progressive at Hollywood ever since its opened Aces with the kicker has NEVER gone over $650.. When I pop in Monday's first thing I do is check out what the amount on aces with a kicker is....

    Hi Alan:

    Where in CP is this located? Between the cashiers and the high limit slot area?

    The last of the Red-White-Blue progressive slots is between the mini dome and Rao's located along the walkway thru the slot machines in that section of the Palace casino. If you were to stand looking at the RWB slot the walk way to David's statue would be to the right of you and the cage would be to the left of you. If you are standing in the mini dome, the RWB machine would be facing you but down the walkway.

    Jen is my Cincinnati host as well. Kind of ticks me off finding out about the car giveaway from you. I need to ask Jen about that. I have been in their top 100 in the past year so I kind of expect to be invited to about anything they do.

    I should be in the Top 100 but since I'm 75% of the time a Video Poker Player they don't recognize my tier score or ADT..
    I discussed this many times with Kevin Kline & John Meecham they both were playing the part they cared but they didn't.
    First year Horseshoe Cincinnati opened I had Dan as my host, he was the best.. Then something happened he left..
    My tier score for year end 2014 was 765,000 yet I wasn't a top 100 player go figure

    I finished the year about 430,000 tiers. I made top 100 in their third quarter playing blackjack. I only play blackjack or VP.
