Does anyone have a Par sheet for the IGT game Wheel Poker Progressive? How is the weighting done on the wheel? I’m trying to figure out if the casino can change the weighting for hitting the progressive amounts on the wheel to scale with the RTP.

The reason I ask is because a local casino near me has the reset set to pay 10 times the normal amount. The minor pays $500 and the Major $2000 on 5 cent denom. This is obviously a massive advantage if the wheel is weighed the same as the $50 and $200 machines.

If the casino however can set the wheel to conform to the machine’s payback percentage there is no advantage.

If I knew where this was, I would be playing as many hands on it as possible. Even the Minor is worth it. Play Bonus or Jacks or Better... You are playing for 4OAK's and 4OAK's only really...

I don't know how the wheels are weighted but I've hit a couple of minors before...

Does this particular game setup require a larger number of nickels to spin the wheel?
It’s a dog eat dog world. …Or maybe it’s the other way around!

In general, every wheel on a slot machine (except roulette) is weighted.

In order to get the par sheets for the two games in question, we would need:

1) the name and location of this casino near you

2) the keys to the slot machines
