Harrah’s Resort Southern California links a new progressive at its table games
$5,000 Welcome Bonus
Harrah’s Resort Southern California has a new dimension of play on its table games.
The Valley Center resort announced via a news release late last month that it was rolling out a new “Impressive Progressive” where guests have the chance to win an estimated jackpot between $500,000 and $1 million. But you don’t have to go to any specific table game on the floor: All 50 of the casino floor’s non-electronic table games are tied into the jackpots.
A progressive jackpot is basically a jackpot that increases each time a game is played but the jackpot is not won. It’s common to see linked progressives on games such as slot machines, but table games can utilize those kinds of jackpots, too.
Bets are $5 and can be hit on any of the tables’ in-game meters.
In an email, Harrah’s Resort Southern California’s Director of Table Games, Victor Li, wrote that each game has multiple progressive jackpots available that hit at different frequencies.
He said the “must hit by meter,” which starts at $250 and must be given out to a guest before it passes $500, is hitting more than once a day. He said the casino has given out more than $280,000 in prizes from the progressive since it launched a few weeks ago.
Harrah’s has 90-day exclusivity among San Diego County casinos with Scientific Gaming for this kind of progressive play, according to the release.
