Obviously the system is biased to the house and the formula for the system is a simple variable. This can definitely be improved though, benefiting the player and making it seem like there is a better chance at winning. The idea of a 'holding-pond' is a model used in other games/gambling system which could work on era. (I forget where the holding-pond post was, it got lost among the spam)

The jackpot ("holding pond") should have a rate of decay. This will both encourage more betting and protect the economy a little better.
