Gameplay[edit]
Each player chooses a team that represents an actual NFL team from a specific season. For each team and each season, a Team Chart designed to reflect that team's strengths and weaknesses during that season is used to direct gameplay. Each 'play' of the game consists of the players secretly choosing a type of play (run, short pass, long pass, etc.), rolling dice, and consulting the Team Charts to determine the result of the play.
History[edit]
The game was originally published by Time Warner under the name 'Sports Illustrated Pro Football'. Avalon Hill later bought the game and renamed it Paydirt, marketing it with a college football version of the game called Bowl Bound. Avalon Hill hired Dr. Thomas R. Nicely, a statistician, to redevelop the mathematics of the gameplay.
Avalon Hill published Paydirt until 1995, but some enthusiasts have published Team Charts for subsequent seasons.
Sources[edit]
After years of prospecting at various sites, we have found excellent gold-producing areas. We collect paydirt from existing rivers, bedrock, banks, streams, and under/near large boulders throughout rivers loaded with gold-bearing paydirt. Our experience has shown that all of these are ideal locations for finding gold. We find the best spots and test them.

Random Progressive Jackpot
Sports Illustrated Paydirt Game
This game features a jackpot. It’s random and can be won at the conclusion of any spin. And it’s progressive, so it gets bigger and bigger the longer it goes without being won.
The story behind the game
Remember the dot com boom? When people with no particular skills or talents somehow made millions of dollars just by getting lucky? Well, back in the 1800s there was something quite similar – it was called the Gold Rush. People from thousands of miles away rushed to the Western frontier, to California, in search of gold, adventure and a nice saloon in which to drink whiskey and shoot card cheats.
Paydirt! hearkens back to those heady days, but this time you’re searching for that big strike with nothing but your wits and your mouse-clicking finger to help in your search.
