The year 2018 has just started and Microgaming’s massively popular Mega Moolah has already paid out its first progressive jackpot worth $3.6 million.
In 2017, Mega Moolah set its own record since it was triggered 12 times, six more than in any previous year, and paid out more than $55.6 million in various currencies. Judging by the start of the new year, 2018 could live up to those high expectations and land even more winners than the previous one.
A lucky winner from Canada triggered the first Mega Moolah jackpot of the year on 14 January playing this lucrative slot at Zodiac Casino. The casino is happy about the win and delighted with the publicity that will surely attract new players.
The lucky player, who chose to stay anonymous, landed a whopping $3,688,553 windfall and was stunned by the amount. He was so shocked that at first he refused to believe he had won the jackpot. He had to double check the screen and call the Customer Support in order to confirm the news.
Although he chose to stay in the dark, the winner is reportedly pondering about what to spend the money on. He is thinking about buying a new car and presents for the entire family as well as going on a long vacation. What a great way to kick off the New Year!
The games publisher at Microgaming, David Reynolds congratulated to the winner.
“We’d like to send the lucky winner all our best following their amazing win and hope that 2018 will continue to set new standards for our record-breaking slot.”
