History has an important place in the world of online slots. When it comes to progressive slots, Triple Olives is one of the oldest games around. Even though it's been around for a very long time, it still has a strong following because it's a very pure game that gives you a chance to win a huge amount of money on a single spin. Players do enjoy the fact that most modern slots have a lot of different features, but the pure nature of Triple Olives and its focus on the big jackpots are a big draw as well.

With Triple Olives, you're dealing with a very specific type of classic slot. This game uses three paylines across three reels with three rows of symbols on each. Unlike most modern slots, this game only has two coin sizes, and these coin sizes correspond to two different progressive jackpots. The coin sizes in this game are $0.25 and $1.00, and you can bet up to three coins total with a single coin bet on each of the three paylines. This means that your two options for bet sizes are $0.75 per spin and $3.00 per spin with all paylines activated.

The theme of Triple Olives is that of bar drinks, and you'll find martinis, cocktail shakers and the olives as well as classic slot symbols like single, double and triple bar symbols. The olives are the key symbol in this game because they are what trigger the progressive jackpot. There are no wilds in this game, and because everything is about trying to take down one single jackpot, this game has an extremely high volatility. Even though there are other payouts, they pale in comparison to the progressives, so the paytable is exceptionally unbalanced in the general sense.

For the $0.25 progressive, you're going to normally see the jackpot in the $5,000 range. With that having been said, this jackpot has gotten up into the lower $20,000 range at times. For the $1.00 progressive, the jackpot will typically be in the range of $30,000, though it can shoot up to $60,000 or more occasionally. Something that's pretty interesting is that if the small jackpot hasn't hit in a while and the large jackpot has recently hit, the $0.25 jackpot can actually be higher than the $1.00 one. This doesn't happen often, but it's worth taking a look at the sizes of the jackpots before you play this game just in case.
