Big Bertha

The slot machines gained immediate popularity soon after they were invented and brought to the casinos, and hence, inventors were trying hard to come up with a design of bigger machine. As a result, the Big Bertha, was introduced—a giant machine of the size of six by ten foot. Powered by a machine with a power equivalent to that needed by the 20 inch wheels driven by chains, there about a huge number of 25.6 billion combinations possible when you play at the Big Bertha—which make the odds of winning quite dim for the player. One of these billion combinations will get the player the jackpot. The return is huge, but the chances are pretty low.

The big records!

The record of winning an amount of $65,093 was finally made in 1073, in a progressive involving one-dollar slot pulls in Reno, at the Harold’s club.

This record was further broken, and now it stands at $1,000,000—a fortune which a woman won in the Canada Casino in Ontario in 2001. You should know that it’s important to note that the cost of a pull during the progressive is $100.
