Noti, Liston did speak about uncapped jackpots and his technique for estimating the odds on the top line hit. I use the same technique and the Wizard used it to determine the odds of the top line hit on the Lion's Share machine at the MGM Grand. But that was a three reel slot machine.
For video line games there is a much better technique that the Wizard uses. A few years back he filmed 200 spins on a Jackpot Party video line game. Its a nine-line five-reel game. He was able to use the film to determine how many 3-symbol combinations there were on each reel. And he was then able to determine the payback percentage of the game. Anyone who takes it that seriously can study his technique by googling "Deconstructing Jackpot Party."
But in one segment of the podcast he talked about jackpots on the east coast in the $9,000/$10,000 range. I think he was talking about Mystery Progressive here because I know there are MP's along the Mississippi River and on the east coast where the range is $9,000 to $10,000. But the meters run awfully slow on those MP's, some as low as 0.1667%.
