Over the last few days the progressive jackpots of a number of casino games were hit at Playtech online casinos. That is not surprising in itself because Playtech offers a large number of progressive games, some of which are hit with rapidity. The surprising aspect was that a few of the payouts ran into six-digit figures.

The biggest hit was on one of the most popular Playtech online slot games titled Gold Rally. Some lucky player at a Playtech online casino took home $340,920. Gold Rally has nine independently spinning reels set in a three by three matrix. The paylines run horizontally, vertically and diagonally and each payline has three symbols. The progressive jackpot is hit when all nine symbols that can be seen are the scatter scales symbols. The maximum that Gold Rally has paid out in recent times was $1.6 million, which was about 14 months ago.

The next largest hit was on Megaball, which was for $121,600. Megaball is a Playtech arcade game based on lotto. The attraction of Megaball is that eight different games can be played with the same draw. Each draw consists of six numbered balls in four different colors and in each game players bet on different combinations and outcomes. In order to win the progressive amount, players must opt for the jackpot game and choose 5 balls with the color. If these appear in the drawn six balls then the progressive jackpot is hit. The maximum Megaball has paid in recent times is $0.5 million over two years ago.

The third Playtech game with a six-digit hit was Magic Slots $5. The payout was $107,320. This is a classic three-reel single payline slot game with a fixed coin size of $5. The progressive jackpot is hit when the magician's hat and gloves symbol appear on each reel with three coins wagered. If players collect three magic wands they get to play a bonus game. They get to choose one of four magicians and receive bonus credits based on their choice. Playtech Magic Slots hits every 11 days on an average for an average payout of $131,400.

There was one near miss as far as the six-digit mark is concerned. A player won $97,600 on Playtech Progressive Blackjack. The progressive jackpot is hit when the player is dealt four aces of the same suit. There was one Playtech progressive jackpot slot game that eluded players. This was Beach Life, which is ticking away at $716,450. But players at Playtech online casinos will not mind this at all. Just over two months ago Beach Life paid out a whopping $8.2 million and players will wait patiently for this progressive jackpot to rise. All these progressive jackpot slots can be played at Playtech online casinos like Casino Tropez, Golden Palace Casino and Omni Casino.
