Pokies Jackpots Can Be Progressive Jackpots

Australian pokies, whether online or in pubs and clubs, are played exactly like any other Vegas style slots. They run along the same lines as the Vegas slots. In other words they exist in 3-reel slots, 5-reel slots, video slots and progressive slots. In all of these Australian pokies, the pokies jackpots work in the same way as other slots jackpots. The Australian pokies also have progressive jackpots which are the most exciting and lucrative if you are lucky enough to win them.

The Various Pokies Jackpots

Australian pokies have the same kinds of progressive jackpots that are found in slots games everywhere. The biggest pokies jackpots are the progressive jackpots that are linked by a global network of unconnected casinos and can be gigantic amounts. These progressive jackpots increase with every coin that is played into a pokies game all over the world which is why they often go into the millions of dollars or Euros or whatever currency you happen to be using. The amounts of these progressive jackpots are shown at the top of the pokies screen if you are playing Australian pokies online.

The next best progressive jackpots for Australian pokies are those that are connected within one casino. Because the games do not have such a wide circulation of players, the totals of these pokies jackpots are not as high as the global ones, but they can award you with very significant amounts.

The other kinds of progressive jackpots are called stand alones. This means that they only grow within the one specific slots game played. So if you are playing one of these Australian pokies with the stand alone jackpot, it will only grow with whatever money you are feeding it.

All players of Australian pokies should remember that, unless you play the maximum number of coins required for each slots game, you won't be eligible for the pokies jackpots. It would really be too bad if you were to play less than the maximum number of coins and find that you got the winning combination for the jackpot!

Australian pokies can be very entertaining and very humorous. Very often, when you go online to play slots, you will see the notation that a certain game is in the Australian style. This means that it has been taken from the Australian pokies and put into the slots platform. Trying to attain pokies jackpots naturally requires that you play for real money. There are no free or practice games with progressive jackpots.
