Major Millions Jackpot Won for $1,491,506

This story was published more than 5 years ago.

Yesterday a lucky punter reporting for duty picked up a life-changing $1,491,506 jackpot win when they struck the Major Millions Jackpot.

The win is the 71st in the nearly 10 years that we've recorded for the progressive prize, and comes in well above the $692,639 average that is generally paid out. The largest win in the game's history is the huge $2,801,619 win picked up in August of last year.

The Major Millions Jackpot is one of Microgaming's older progressive prizes, and grows with every spin of the reels. A portion of every wager placed goes into the jackpot pool, and is paid out when players are able to land 5 wild symbols on the game's fifteenth payline.

Casino Listings News is following this story and will update readers if we get wind of who won the prize and where.

Big enough number and above average in hitting major million jackpot prizes, a victory that certainly greatly changes a person's life,

I've had ever thought this Jackpot doesn't match it's name in terms of winning sizes but at least it's quite frequently hit one, obviously they not going to change it to a Major Million or something.

Great. The jackpot is triggered mostly around this amount as far as I remember.
In the Jackpot information page, it was triggered 71 times with the average of $700,000, so, the Jackpot became bigger with more players for the last 1~2 years (?) 🙂
