GO-POTS!
Go-Pots are intriguing Jackpots that offer the player four entry fee levels: $20, $50, $100, and $300. All matches are played to 5-points guaranteeing fast-paced action. The concept is simple: Win a $20, $50, or $100 4-player Go-Pot and continue to a higher level or stop and cash out. Player equity is always increased by going forward. For example, if you win a $20 Go-Pot, you can cash out for $65 (81% return); but if you continue on, you receive $20 cash up front and a $50 entry credit into a future $50, $100, or $300 Go-Pot. (You are not required to play the Go-Pots in order.) Win a $50 Go-Pot and get paid $170 (85% return), or take $80 cash and a $100 entry credit. Win a $100 Go-Pot and you can cash out for $360 (90% return), or be paid $80 and receive a $300 entry into the top level Go-Pot. Players winning $300 Go-Pots receive $1140 (95% return) and a “CSI: Backgammon” Cap. Tip: If you might play again, take the coupon because you can always exchange it for cash later. |
