It will probably come as no surprise that Super Big Bertha was an upgrade to the aforementioned machine. This beast of a unit once took the crown as the world’s biggest slot machine in the 1950s. Eight reels featured 20 symbols each, returning a huge 25.6 billion possible combinations. With so many combinations, the chances of winning the $1 million jackpot were incredibly slim; in fact, you’d have to play the machine 15 billion times to be in with a chance! Despite the odds, players have won big money over the years, including one woman in 2001 who won the jackpot in an Ontario casino.
