Abstract

A system and method for providing progressive awards can include a computing device in communication with a memory. The computing device can generate outcomes for a wagering game using a bet amount. The outcome can include one or more indicia. The computing device can update a progressive value using the bet amount and determine if a progressive threshold is satisfied based on an accrued hand count. In response to the progressive threshold being satisfied, the computing device can provide an award based on the progressive value.
