There was a buzz around the machine every time we were there and there always seemed to be someone lingering around waiting to play it. There was a guy there last night who mentioned there is a podcast that gives daily updates on the progressive amount. Good luck everyone.
word is getting out its a 'overdue' machine.
it may be total BS, but not hitting a jackpot in 15 years is a good enough reason for me

When I was there it was by the High Limits room, not in one of the first rows, but I think the second. We walked around for a bit before finding it. It stands a bit taller than the others.

I guess I don't understand how it can go that long with out hitting if they are supposed to be programmed to hit. Seems a bit like a marketing ploy to me...but then again, aren't they all?

Nothing is "programmed to hit."

Too bad casinos don't have referrer bonuses to locals who send people to gamble on machines "due to hit". A cut from MGM every month would be a nice addition.

I was at the Silverton today to eat the yummy salad at MI CASA and noticed that the multi-million dollar Wheel Of Fortune Progressive machine was reset down to $1 million. Did someone just hit that jackpot today? How does one check?
