Most Blazing 7's machines are what we call 'Buy a Pay' meaning that more combinations pay when playing each coin. Check the paytable and see if the third coin makes other pays available. In either case it is still probably better to play the third coin. 98% doesn't surprise me at all for some $1 Blazing 7's. Blazing 777 Blackjack Progressive is an exciting new optional blackjack progressive bet that’s based on 7s. The more 7s you get, the more you win! Getting Started. To begin each round, make a standard blackjack bet and the Blazing 7s progressive bet. The dealer then follows the house procedures for.
Casino is advertising 98% but I can't find any info on it.Highest return listed on the arcade site is 97%.
Also, is it worth it to put in the 3rd coin if the progressive is near reset ($1000)?
2nd coin = $500
3rd coin = progressive
Seems to keep variance low to stick to 2coins?

If the casino's paytable is anything like the one the Wizard analyzed here you will need to bet three coins because the relative payouts the non-jackpot prizes with 7s are also increased with the 3rd coin. The example he showed jumped the 2 coin return from 85.43% to 89.09% for 3 coins. That wasn't all due to the jackpot.

Why would you want to keep variance low when playing a -EV game?
You have a 98% return. To keep variance as low as possible, just write the casino a check for 2% of the amount of coin-in you plan to do and don't play at all.
They have an edge. Variance is your only chance of winning.

98% sounds high. Any idea how often the progressive hits?

I was told by Doug Reul, a highly knowledgeable AP, that the frequency of the top line hit was 16X16X16 = 4096 on these Blazing Sevens progressives. Pros played the dollar ones at about $1500. Meter strength has a lot to do with the play.

Interesting, thanks Mickey.
If each reel is 1/16 it should not take too much data to verify.

If you have a 97% payback game and add 1% of the coin-in to the progressive meter, it is effectively a 98% game.

The arcade history page also lists 1/4096: http://www.arcade-history.com/?n=blazing-7s-progressive&page=detail&id=45807
However, it lists a top payback of 97.18%. It also says that the jackpot resets at $1500 so I'm not sure if we are talking about the same machine.
If it was set to 97.18% and the jackpot reset at $1500, and it was $3 per bet, the game would be break-even at $1846.52. If it was set to 87.68% (the lowest payback listed on the arcadehistory page) the game would be break-even at $3013.88.

Agreed. It's definitely possible it hasn't changed over the years, but I would clock them just in case myself.

Actually it's 33% (I assume you mean it's $1 / point, so you had $750 in coin-in and lost $500)
I suspect that you ran really bad. Even if a lot of money is tied up in the big payouts, very few slots are going to play that badly between jackpots, since too many people would stop playing.

Excuse me if this has already been answered. How do you know the machine you are playing is the one that's 98% Normally there is only one on the bank that is 98%? If it says 'up to' No doubt this is the case. Anyways, even if they say 98% payback, well, I run into lies about payback percentages all the time. Only way you can be fairly sure its 98% is with a ton of spins. $500 in, only got 750 points (maxxed $3/spin) :(

In my experience Blazing sevens has some wicked variance. It will really come down to how often you are hitting the red sevens. I have had sessions(playing multiple machines at once) where I was up many thousands with no jackpot. Other times I have dumped thousands playing one machine for not long at all.

There was recently a situation where a casino slot manager and other employees were asked something specific a few times over about a slot machine( this should have been logged and filed and approved with gaming). They all gave the same VERY WRONG MISLEADING BAD answer.♪♪Now you swear and kick and beg us That you're not a gamblin' man Then you find you're back in Vegas With a handle in your hand♪♪ Your black cards can make you money So you hide them when you're able In the land of casinos and money You must put them on the table♪♪ You go back Jack do it again roulette wheels turinin' 'round and 'round♪♪ You go back Jack do it again♪♪

Plus, the host does not know these things. He probably just looked at the sign, misunderstood it, and gave you an answer.
