On Vpfree site there is a jackpot section. There is one posted for $400,000 on 100 play.

Is that a real jackpot?

Usually there are other credit amounts on the machine when someone hits a jackpot. (for instance all the other photos on the page have amounts in the credits other than the jackpot)

http://www.vpfree2.com/video-poker/jackpots

Like if you win $1000 on 1.25 the only way the machine lists just that, is there was only 1.25 in the machine when you played the winning hand.

EDIT -

You may not see that, as I don't know a direct link to it, and there are more pages of jackpots.
There's no secret. Just know what you're talking about before you open your mouth.

The left says how much you win ($400K), while on the right it says how much you currently have. You're looking at win.

The pic looks like it cut off the credit balance box. I'd assume it happened. Some casinos offer 100 play $1 games.

I assume GWAE was being sarcastic. But in reality, if you're out for a fun night and have the money to play at that level (maybe $3K), the variance isn't as bad as you likely think [dollars wise, not some esoteric 19.51 number that no one knows what it means]. Even when dealt sh*tty hands, you usually end up getting a quarter or half of your money back. But on the upside, you can get dealt something fun, even three of a kind will get you a chunky profit [especially if it's A's or 2's-4's].

I can't imagine 500 a play. A while back I stuck $100 in a 100 play penny machine. I lasted about 9 minutes and I had the machine on slow.

Agree! For 500 a play I'd be so nervous I wouldn't be able to hit the deal button.

I think I'd rather play dime 5 play on Ultimate X. Of course that can go quick, too.

$3000 on that unit with a max bet is like walking by a roulette table and putting $100 on black.
