A jackpot is a betting pool where a fixed or growing prize is paid out if all required selections are predicted correctly.
Jackpots usually involve multiple matches and a shared prize fund.
How it works
-
Bettors must predict outcomes for a set number of events
-
All selections must be correct to win the top prize
-
If no one wins, the jackpot may roll over to the next round
Example
-
Jackpot requires correct picks for 12 football matches
-
Prize pool: $100,000
-
One perfect ticket wins the entire amount
Key characteristics
-
Very high payouts
-
Extremely low probability of winning
-
Often offered with low entry stakes
Important note
Jackpot bets are highly negative EV and should be treated as entertainment, not a long-term betting strategy.
