Big stakes

Does anybody think the £100 spins will ever come back in bookies ????

Hopefully not

I would say there's no chance, but I think it's time the jackpots were increased. They've been £500 for nearly 20 years.

I completely agree with this. £1000 or £2000 would be a bit more realistic in todays day and age.

Yes that would be good like I’ve had £500 jackpot and 30 spins remaining so would be nice to see them go up to £1000

£1000 jackpot NEVER going to happen.

The odds on the gambles would change to account for the increase in potential prize, but it would be good if they could pay more.

In my opinion £750 to £1000 would be a reasonable amount considering it's being 20 or so years since £500's were introduced.

Firstly, never in my wildest dreams can I see the bookies doubling the jackpot and second, I wonder if  there's any government ruling that dictates a cap on £500.?? The bookies would use the excuse that it encourages problem gambling. It would be nice to see but I think highly unlikely.

Yeah can’t see this happening but would be good to see in my opinion

It wouldn't have any effect on the bookies / arcades / services though, it's not like they'd pay out at the same frequency because that would make the RTP 99.5% or something. A bigger jackpot wouldn't mean any less takings for them, in fact I reckon in the short term the takings would go up as people would be chasing their first big jackpot.
