semilla/ capital inicial del pote/premio mayor

Jugando a las tragamonedas (gaming machines/slot)

Los potes mayores de los tragamonedas (jackpots) progresivos se financian en su mayoría por los propios jugadores. En cada vuelta, un porcentaje de su apuesta va en el pote mayor progresivo, aumentando la cantidad que será ganada eventualmente. Cuando esto se da finalmente, un cierto porcentaje (o cantidad fija) del premio mayor denominado como "semilla" se usa para ir aumentando el próximo premio mayor; esto significa que los ganadores de jackpots progresivos a menudo no tienen el 100% del valor del pote en la lista, ya que el capital inicial (semilla) se mantiene en reserva. En otros casos, la totalidad del premio es otorgado, con el casino en sí poniendo el capital inicial para cada premio.

Progressive jackpots are mostly funded by the players themselves. On every spin, a percentage of your wager goes into the progressive jackpot, increasing the amount that will be won by the eventual winner.
When the jackpot is eventually won, a certain percentage (or set amount) of the jackpot is held back as a “seed” for the next jackpot; this means that winners of progressive jackpots often don’t take 100% of the listed jackpot value, since the seed money is held in reserve. In other cases, the entire jackpot is awarded, with the casino itself putting up the seed money for each jackpot.
