2019 shapes up to be a great year for Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network with eight new millionaires and more than €89 million paid already.
Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network has made many players rich over the years, but it surely exceeded expectations in 2019. We are only halfway through with this year and their top paying games have already paid nearly €90 million across 1,150,559 jackpots. The lucky winners were paid in the currency they chose for gambling and eight new millionaires have emerged in the first half of 2019.
Zodiac Casino Player Won the Biggest Jackpot of 2019
The year started particularly well for a Zodiac Casino player won a huge jackpot worth more than €13 million while spinning the reels of Mega Moolah. This is the third-largest jackpot in Microgaming’s history and by far the biggest one in 2019, but there’s plenty of time left for new records to be set. His victory on January 30 provided fellow players with the impetus to double their efforts and chase one of the other jackpots on Microgaming’s progressive network.
In the first half of 2019, eight players have won an amount exceeding €1 million and early March made back-to-back millionaires. On March 5 and 6, two players have won in excess of €11 million, respectively €2.2 million. There were no new millionaires in April, but things got back on track in May, as two players won roughly the same amounts for a combined payout of €11 million. The most recent jackpot was paid in a lump sum on June 17, when the lucky winner scooped a bit over €3 million.
Microgaming Lifetime Payouts Exceed €1 Billion
2019 is gearing up to be one of the best years for Microgaming’s progressive jackpot network. With more than a million jackpots paid and many lives changed for the better, punters have high expectations for the remaining six months. Microgaming jackpots total lifetime payouts have crossed the psychological threshold of €1 billion and are inching closer to the €1.1 billion mark. The biggest jackpot ever paid belongs to them, as a lucky punter scooped nearly €90 million last year while playing Mega Moolah.
