Odds of Hitting the Jackpot Playing Online Slots

Do you know the odds to hit the jackpot when playing online slots? The online casinos sure aren’t going to advertise the odds and you won’t get the odds from other players because they don’t know. Let’s look at the odds of hitting it big playing online slots.

You should be aware that if you are playing for a progressive jackpot your odds of hitting it are small. Let’s look at some examples. If you are playing the Aladdin’s Lamp odds your chances of hitting the jackpot are about 1 in 2.5 million. If you are playing the Haunted House online slot then your chances are about a million to one. The odds are better for progressive slots like Jack in the Box or Gold Pirates as the odds are about 1 in a quarter million.

When you are playing a progressive jackpot it normally doesn’t matter how long it has been since the jackpot has been hit as the odds are the same. No machine is due to hit so unless a particular machine has a limit of when it must hit, the odds of hitting it big are still going to be the same no matter when you play the online slot.

If you think that the chances of hitting an online slot jackpot are remote you should know that at least they are better than hitting the Megabucks machine in Las Vegas where the odds are anywhere from 8 million to 1 to 33 million to 1.
