This story was published more than 9 years ago.

Betfair's New Jersey casino has broken the record for largest progressive jackpot in the Garden State's short history when a punter won $1,522,000 playing Let it Ride on Valentine's Day.

The big winner is from Union County, New Jersey, and hit the Let it Ride jackpot. His jackpot win came with a steep wager, as he paid $500 for three initial bets as well as 3 extra cards. The customer ended up hitting a Royal Flush, with a 1000:1 payout for each of the three initial bets, and an additional 40:1 bonus on the 3 Card Bonus bet as he also had a Straight Flush in that wager.

Commenting on the big win Betfair Casino General Manager Don Ryan said, "It's always exciting when a player hits a big win. We're thrilled to be a part of US online gaming history and to be able to provide generous bonuses, high payouts, and a secure and fair online gaming experience to our BetfairCasino.com players in New Jersey for years to come."
