Progressive Roulette Stake Levels and Payouts

A relatively new innovation in online roulette is the game offering a progressive jackpot, and based on European Roulette which has the lowest house edge.

Microgaming has offered the game, with minimum value chips of $1 per chip.

To play, a side bet is wagered before laying out your bets as per the standard roulette requirements. The side bet allows bonus payouts or a chance of winning the total of the progressive jackpot.

Progressive roulette is extremely fast paced and exciting. There are no free plays and players can arrange to play in the currency that their account at the casino uses.

Payouts are provided when one number appears more than once. If a number appears two times in a row that is when players start to win bonus pay outs, usually at 15 times the original bet.

The stake is one dollar for one chip or for UK based players one credit equals one pound sterling and one Euro buys one credit.

The progressive jackpot is paid out if one number appears five times in a row. Players can then win bonus payouts on their side bet in addition to any win on the normal game.

For example, a number appearing four times in a row will receive a payout of 3,000 chips. A number appearing three times in a row wins 200 chips and if the number appears twice in a row 15 chips.

The high jackpot amount is a result of the high house edge but this reduces the higher the jackpot becomes.
