What does the regular Seq Royal progressive pay?

@4:30 he was playing the nickel machine paying $73k for Seq royal on 7/5 TDB requiring 50 cent bet only.

Overall pay back percentage is about 1.03%, seq royal pays about 10% of all return. Is this a common seq royal pay? I never played such game before.

Wizard discussed this yesterday. You bet 10 credits instead of 5 bringing the pay back down to the 105% range.

The ac royal with 5 aces progressive starts at $50k and it goes to $75k normally. But recently couple of progressive jackpots have been hit at the level about $55k.

For $75k jackpot on ac poker (quarter, $3.75 bet), the payback percentage of progressive is 75000 / 0.25 / 3 / / 5 / 2869685 = 0.7%. Adding the base pay 97%, then it’s 97.7%, if I am not mistaken.

Some have speculated that this was a dump from another game. Essentially they took out a game with a jackpot and added it to these.

No, it's rare to find a game near 105% EV.

The most common base pay I've seen is 50,000 coins for the sequential. There was a recent hit at Green Valley Ranch for almost $72k on a 50 cent bet (10 nickels). The photo showed the reset at $5,000 -- which is the equivalent of 50k coins because it's effectively a 10c denomination game.

Palace Station for years has had a bank of 8/5 Bonus 25c with a non-progressive $12,500 payoff for the sequential.

About a year ago, Circus Circus finally removed its Aces & Eights. As I recall, the sequential started at 10,000 coins and was originally progressive but then they downgraded to non-progressive.
