Since Foxwoods upgraded its DDB to 9/6 at (almost) every machine, I have avoided the progressives which only pay 9/5. But just for a goof, I do look at what seems to be the only remaining progressive $1 bank, in Grand Cedar, and it usually is only around $4100 or so. I did notice it was, I believe, $4500 or so on Monday, but I avoided it anyway in favor of the 9/6.

T'is pure speculation whaz dey do. You could ask the tribes gaming commission...... Have a non-gambling friend call :-)
Whaz I look for is NOT stuck progressives, (just walk away from 'em) rather those not reset after (modest) jackpots. Sometimes, I like to think floor mgmt makes a decision to not reset as they are having a good day.
Ever see progressives not reset at FW/MS? Meself only in Nevada.

But because the data had not transmitted, I suspect it would have been paid at the lower figure. But that's mere speculation, with obviously no way to ascertain what would actually have happened.
