In late 2018, The Venetian Resort launched Millionaire Progressive, one of the largest table-games progressives in Las Vegas. A player becomes eligible for the mega tier of the Millionaire Progressive, which begins at $1 million and increases incrementally, once the player makes the $5 side bet. The progressive is available on several table games: Ultimate Texas Hold’em, Three Card Poker, Let it Ride, Crazy 4 Poker and Mississippi Stud in both
the Venetian and Palazzo casinos. The Millionaire Progressive has minted 11 millionaires since inception.
