Money can’t buy you love, but it can pay for a limo to the Bunny Ranch.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nWhile Vegas is no stranger to multi-million dollar slot jackpots, they do seem to be happening with a much greater frequency just as Las Vegas is opening up again fully following a year of challenges related to the pandemic.<\/p>\n
So, why are these big jackpots hitting so often? We’re pretty sure it’s related to how much play the machines are getting.<\/p>\n
There was a lot of pent-up demand for Vegas, and visitors have come back in large numbers, fueled by a need to party, as well as stimulus checks, unemployment checks and tax refunds.<\/p>\n
The more play machines get, the more frequent the payouts. It’s the law.<\/p>\nWhen Megabucks hit, machines across Las Vegas reset to $10 million. Oh, like you’d turn that down.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nNo, actually, it is sort of the law. Las Vegas casinos have to adhere to strict guidelines about slot machine payback minimums. (Machines can’t pay back less than 75 percent. The vast majority pay much more, with some approaching 100 percent payback.)<\/p>\n
Beyond the regulations, though, it feels like the machines are collaborating to spark excitement about Las Vegas at a critical time.<\/p>\n
So, come get yours.<\/p>\n
We look forward to sharing our own million-dollar jackpot soon! Because, you know, good things come in, well, fives.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
