Re: Vegas Slot Machine Hasn't Hit in Over 20 years - is the $2.3 Million Jackpot Due
This machine is no more likely to slot up now than it ever was. It is a good example of why not to play slots.Originally posted by Steve Bourie View Post -

You are correct sir. The last time I tried it, I couldn't even pick up a 3 comped night.Originally posted by scrappy View PostIs Theo what you named your net worth? If its theoretical, its probably not worth it. But if its fun, priceless.

MGM is not known to throw comps around, you would probably need to play the slots for the 3 nights before they know you're in the building.Originally posted by keno60 View PostYou are correct sir. The last time I tried it, I couldn't even pick up a 3 comped night.Comment

I saw a picture of this Lions share slot machine from march of 2011 and the meter was 2.22 million and now its around 2.4 mill. This is a real slow ticker. I wonder what is was set at 20 years ago.Originally posted by Steve Bourie View PostComment

They said in the story that it would be reset to $1 million. So I assume that was the original jackpot amount?
However, once it gets hit I think people would lose all interest in playing it.Comment

So it took 20 years to go from 1 million to 2.34 million, and people are standing in line to play it. I don't think its getting reset, I read somewhere its to old to keep using, its not even TITO. They are going to give the machine to the next winner.Originally posted by Steve Bourie View PostComment

If it is a fair slot machine, it is no more likely and no less likely than it ever was. However, the progressive jackpot is higher, so by that measure it has a higher expected value and thus is a better bet. On the other hand, the jackpot barely seems to be keeping up with inflation. But then again, the price of entry declines with inflation, since $3 today is worth about $1.90 in 1994 dollars. So it's probably about a wash. In any case, I agree that it is a good example of why not to play slots.Originally posted by scrappy View PostComment
