ABSTRACT:
Methods of Progressive Jackpot gaming are disclosed, wherein players are offered multiple chances to enter into a Progressive Jackpot wagering game each hand. Players are offered an initial Progressive Jackpot wagering opportunity prior to any cards being dealt, and are then offered subsequent wagering opportunities as they receive portions of their hand. A portion of each Progressive Jackpot wager is set aside for the Super Progressive Jackpot. The amount of the Super Progressive Jackpot, plus the amount of the Progressive Jackpot will be awarded to a player with the highest Progressive Jackpot hand rank (i.e. a Royal Flush) if that player placed a Progressive Jackpot wager at every offered opportunity.
