2 june 2013 year for the first time in the modern history of Sportloto 6 of 49 "one of the participants of the 23113rd draw won the super prize. He guessed everything 6 numbers and got 10 million rubles. Unfortunately, Russian Lotto lottery winners are not represented in this article, since the authors do not have any reliable information about them.
Do I need to choose "hot" jackpot slots?
Is it true or not, you can't say for sure. One side, the chances of winning must be equal regardless of whether, what amount has accumulated, and how long did the slot machine not pay. After all, a random number generator is used, which does not take into account past events. I.e, he shouldn't care, that the jackpot fell a day ago, week or six months.
On the other hand, there is an interview with a programmer, who says the opposite. The interview was published on the well-known resource Big Win Board., for which some false statements have not been noticed. Programmer's name is not specified, but it says, that he works for a major developer. We wrote about this here.
On this topic Creation of branded slots. Interview with the director of Blueprint Gaming
Let's admit, amount accumulates from $10,000. The developer has programmed the slot like this, to hit the jackpot before reaching this amount, it was possible with a probability 1 of 10,000. And after that, how the sum reaches the mark in $100,000, the probability of winning increases to 1 of 1,000. When the jackpot rises to $200,000, chances will be 1 of 100. Then, let's say half a million, chances increase to 1 of 10.
Unfortunately, We do not know, what developer does this programmer work for and is this method practiced by everyone, or this exception, and not the norm. But anyway, search for "hot" slots, which seemed like useless advice before, makes sense.
It turns out, that in this way the developer can control, what winnings they mostly want to see. Its useful to note, which at least for some jackpots from Red Tiger Gaming, this system of changing probabilities is true.
Limit Jackpots from Red Tiger Gaming
There are progressive jackpots, which differ significantly from those, to which we are used to. Red Tiger Gaming recently came up with Must Drop jackpots. They are connected to all slots of this developer, but currently available in a limited number of casinos. More about it here.
Must Drop series includes: Daily, Must Go and King Jackpots. Which one will get a specific player, solved randomly. The uniqueness of two of them is, that they have their own limits on the amount or time. Must Go jackpot is guaranteed to pay out before, how will the amount reach 2,000 pounds. The Daily Jackpot is guaranteed to pay out within 24 hours. A certain time is set in the casino, eg 18:00, and whatever the amount, it will be ripped off before that moment.
If all progressive jackpots are set the same, as one of the programmers mentions in an interview with the Big Win Board, then the logic should be like this: wait until the jackpot amount grows, and only then start to put. But it doesn't have to be. There are many examples of refutation., when progressive jackpots hit almost immediately. The next day, in one day. While on average it takes several months.
How to win the jackpot?
Lottery lovers often develop their own rules for participating in the game, which, in their opinion, can significantly increase the chances of winning. They are driven by the desire to win the jackpot, and therefore they relate to the matter very thoroughly.
Some of these recommendations are borrowed from open sources, and therefore require some comments from the standpoint of mathematical statistics and probability theory.
Recommendation 1. Keep track of winning combinations. Use specialized lottery sites, where such information is publicly available. Use the accumulated information to fill out tickets or form bets.
Specialist comment. Powerful computers are now responsible for generating winning combinations, implementing special algorithms for generating random numbers. The output is really random numbers, which is logically impossible to predict.
Recommendation 2. Do not use three consecutive numbers due to the fundamental impossibility of such combinations.
Specialist comment. ANY combination of numbers or numbers can be winning. Combinations are statistically more common, in which the same numbers or numbers do not line up in a single row.
Recommendation 3. Buy as many lottery tickets as possible. Thus, it will be possible to multiply the chances of winning..
Specialist comment. It really is. The question is, how much money are you even willing to spend on this adventure. Ideally, buy the entire circulation at once. true, its value is always an order of magnitude higher than the promised jackpot.
Buying hundreds of tickets will really increase your chances of winning a hundred times.. But by itself, the probability of winning these hundred tickets is still insanely small and amounts to millionths of a percent.
Recommendation 4. Control emotions and inner urges, limiting spending on the purchase of lottery tickets to a predetermined amount.
Specialist comment. A wise and very practical rule, which not everyone succeeds in following. It is this that is able to save an overly carried away player from ruin.

Progressive jackpot - sometimes referred to as cumulative jackpot - no upper limits. Its value often reaches tens and even hundreds of millions of dollars..
The peculiarity of the progressive jackpot is the constant increase in the money fund created for it due to the percentage deductions from the amounts lost by the participants in the game or lottery.
Due to the participation of hundreds of thousands of participants in certain draws, the size of the progressive jackpot can be comparable to the annual budget of an island nation ...
Accumulating jackpots are widely used in slot machines, video slots and video games, helping to whet interest in them to incredible limits. Greed, coupled with passion, do their "dirty deed": people literally lose their heads in an effort to get rich at once ...
Winning the progressive jackpot isn't easy. It takes more than just luck, and the real favor of Destiny. Millions of gamers see themselves as applicants for such fabulous money, and the more there are, the smaller the chances of a single player to win.
Any casino will benefit from equipping slot machines with a progressive jackpot, because its size is ALWAYS an order of magnitude less than the profit from the services provided by the casino. But a more powerful publicity stunt, inevitably attracting customers, still not invented.
A big win is always made up of the total amount of money lost by less fortunate players. You must always be aware of this., crossing the threshold of the casino or registering on the next virtual playground ...
