Millions Won on Progressive Jackpots In 1 Week

Microgaming, the world's largest manufacturer of online gaming software, dished out more than £3 million in prizes to two lucky progressive jackpot slots players in the same week.

The first player to strike gold through Microgaming's Progressive Jackpot Network was a female player from Britain, who hit a £1.97 million jackpot on January 7, just 10 days after registering her account with Platinum Play Online Casino. The lucky lady plans to put her winning toward holidays in Las Vegas, China and Nepal, and will also donate a portion to animal charities and to her own early retirement.

Just a couple of days after this massive win, a second player hit a £1.3 million jackpot playing Microgaming's Major Millions slot at Spin Palace Casino. This male slots player hit the jackpot less than three days after opening his online casino account. He too will receive the full winnings immediately, so he'll be able to take a holiday or spend the cash however he likes.

Microgaming's Progressive Jackpot Network has now paid out over €320 in prizes since opening in 1999, and this figure will only grow. The total across all progressive jackpots currently stands at a relatively low 3.3. million euros, in part because of the recent wins, but this keeps growing every day and it's only a matter of time till one lucky player hits one.
