Abstract
A gaming system for evaluating a jackpot using a time cap is provided. The system includes a processor and a memory, wherein the processor is configured to execute instructions stored in the memory which when executed, cause the processor to at least store, in the memory, a jackpot including time cap parameters and a value of the jackpot. The instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to select a time cap based on the time cap parameters. The instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to determine, in response to a game instance, that the selected time cap has been reached. The instructions, when executed, further cause the processor to credit, in response to the determination, the value of the progressive jackpot to a player credit balance.
