Already the first online content company to offer a Caribbean Stud game, Evolution gaming has added a progressive jackpot to the online game.
According to the company, the jackpot further differentiates its games from other providers and will give players increased potential winnings through a simple side bet. The progressive jackpot side bet pays out even if the player folds or is beaten by the dealer’s hand in the main game.
The top Jackpot is one with a Royal Flush. A second level of Jackpot prizes offers fixed-value payouts for poker hands below a Royal Flush—from three of a kind, through straight, flush, full house and four of a kind, up to a straight flush paying €2,500, the company said in a press release.
The initial jackpot prize was started at €50,000 fund from Evolution. The prize fund then becomes progressively larger as a percentage of all progressive jackpot side bets are added to the Jackpot fund.
“We are extremely excited by the potential of this first ever Jackpot for Caribbean Stud Poker, said Todd Haushalter, chief product officer at Evolution. “Players are attracted to big money prizes and the main progressive jackpot has the potential to reach millions. Just as importantly, players like to know they stand to win other prizes while going for ‘the big one.’ Our first licensees have already launched our Jackpot and we continue to add licensees daily. The aim is to get as many of our licensees on board as soon as possible to get the value of that main Progressive Jackpot prize soaring.”
