Press Release: IGT Offers First-Ever Video Poker Progressive Interstate Link

Is that true on the progressive keno machines too that are capped? Have never seen anything posted on the progressive keno at the las vegas club. (Over $96,000 plus)

Maybe I am just not looking in the right area? This is a 5 cent keno prgressive machine. .maximum play is 20 cents..four nickles...progressive hooked to two machines ... ..

In Nevada, if there is a cap on a progressive, it has to be stated clearly on or near the machine, otherwise it is a violation. Caps are not gambler friendly as you lose the meter movement part of your return as soon as the cap hits. Sometimes the cap is unintentional and will be released by a key person, othertimes the cap was intentional and the gamblers complaining will get 86'd for noticing. So, as always in a casino, the overall optimal strategy is not clear. We look through the spyglass darkly, as the pirates used to say.

Capped progressives - reminds me of the Gold Coast. When you enter from the valet parking on the east side of the casino, there is a bank of 3 $.25 slot machines that have stood at $999,999.99 for at least the last 5-7 yeras.

I see that my question is going to run tomorrow (Saturday) on the LVA about what is going to happen to the tons of unhit progressives at the Riviera.
