Abstract
A method for playing a wagering game allowing a player to be eligible for a progressive jackpot having an actual value. The method comprises conducting the wagering game that has a randomly selected outcome selected from a plurality of outcomes, and displaying a displayed value of the progressive jackpot to the player. The method further includes increasing the displayed value by increments of a first denomination, and awarding a player an award value of the progressive jackpot in response to the player achieving the progressive jackpot. The award value is greater than the displayed value and is equally divisible by a second denomination that is larger than the first denomination. Other methods are provided for creating an escrow pool for funding the difference between the displayed and award values, and also for awarding multiple jackpots from a plurality of progressive jackpots.
