Over the past several months, players who have tried their luck at a progressive jackpot with Slotland have come away as very big winners. Is it just a coincidence? More importantly, is the magical spell of winning over, or has it just begun? These winnings, up in the six-figure amount levels, are considerable. At a time when our nation’s economy is a bit down on its luck, winning at a progressive jackpot can help people dig themselves out of big trouble.

This fall the winnings for Slotland, an online slot and video poker site have come to record-breaking quantities of cash - $411,260. Most recently, a player testing their odds at a Golden 8 Slot machine walked away with $134,253. Although there were few winners reported during the summer months, there were remarkable wins in March ($195,000) and August ($168,000).

With progressive jackpots, everything depends on how much extra money people are able to pad their bets with. Some savvy players are in the habit of doing it every single wager they make. Others hold out and wait until they are in a game in which they feel extra, extra lucky. After the jackpot pays out to a winner, Slotland is set up so that it will automatically rest to give away $50,000 for a win. With solid site traffic, Slotland has no trouble getting their jackpots right back up to six-figures once more.

That’s how it works, folks. Sometimes you hit a dry spell at the slots that lasts for what seems like decades. And then all of a sudden, you have money falling from the sky from your lucky hit.
