Progressive Casino Jackpot Hit on Christmas Day

It is great to hit a progressive jackpot anytime, but it is even better to hit it on Christmas Day. There is nothing better to set the Christmas spirit soaring than the sound of the cash register ringing. So it was indeed a lucky Christmas for one player who hit the jackpot on the Playtech online slot game Wall Street Fever for $220,335.

In a sense it was ironic that it was the slot game Wall Street Fever that spread the Christmas cheer, because all throughout the year the real life Wall Street has put up a pretty dismal performance. This hit on Wall Street Fever was the second highest hit of the year. But it paid out only about half the amount of the highest hit, which was recorded five months ago. In the last 365 days Wall Street Fever has paid $1.86 million at an average rate of $109k recording a hit every 21 days.

Wall Street Fever is a 5 reel video slot. Surprisingly it has only 5 paylines. The slot game has a fixed coin denomination of $0.10 and players can wager only one coin per payline. This means that an investment of only $0.50 per spin is required for hitting the progressive jackpot, which is won when 5 Wall Street wild symbols appear in an enabled payline with all paylines activated. If all paylines are not activated players have to settle for a fixed payout of 100,000 coins. The symbols on the reels display the hectic life of stock brokers on Wall Street. There are symbols like phones, mobile phones, personal computers, briefcases, dollar signs and wads of dollar notes.

Wall Street Fever has several other features that make it an attractive online slot game. Three or more scatter symbols trigger the free spins bonus round. With three scatter symbols players get 5 free spins, with four scatter symbols players get 15 free spins and with five scatter symbols players get a whopping 50 free spins. The free spins can be retriggered. There is also a pick a box type bonus game on the second screen.

The progressive jackpot online slot game Wall Street Fever was a reset to its starting level of $1000 when hit, but in the short space of about two days it has already risen to over $12,000. This just goes to show that wagering is on in full swing during this Christmas break from work. Wall Street Fever can be played at all Playtech online casinos. CasinoAdvisor recommends Casino Tropez, Casino Del Rio, Omni Casino, Play United and Golden Palace Casino.
