Mega Moolah Progressive Jackpot Hits Twice in 48 Hours

2019 is already shaping up to be a great year for Casino Rewards brand players. In a thrilling turn of events, two players landed absolutely massive jackpot wins on Microgaming's Mega Moolah progressive slot title.

Two Big Wins in Two Short Days

On Tuesday, March 5, the first jackpot was struck for a mind-blowing amount of €11,546,388.15. Then, in a completely unexpected and exciting win, the jackpot was hit for a second time just a day later on Wednesday, March 6. The payout on the second jackpot was a whopping sum of €2,201,120.31.

The initial lump sum win of just over €11.5 million will go down in the books as the fourth-largest payout in the history of Microgaming's progressive slot network.

With these two most recent wins, Microgaming's progressive jackpot network can now boast that it has made 71 people into millionaires since its inception.

Both jackpot wins were triggered by members of Casino Rewards brands, and the second jackpot win was made in only 33 bets from a player who had only registered with the casino earlier that same day.

Mega Moolah Makes Millionaires

Big wins from the Mega Moolah slot are not new to the Microgaming team, but they still love to reach out to congratulate players and share in their excitement.

Microgaming's Games Publisher David Reynolds offers his congratulations to both players and says, "Mega Moolah strikes yet again. Microgaming continues to lead the way with more life-changing wins on the network."

Reynolds goes on to say that "the fact that these two millionaires were made on consecutive days really demonstrates the strength and popularity of our world-famous Mega Moolah slot."

The Mega Moolah slot is Microgaming's flagship progressive, and it has the largest jackpot pool of all the slot titles in the network. The safari-themed game has been around since 2006, and it has paid out some impressively huge wins over the years.

In fact, this slot is so huge that it has broken its own record in the Guinness Book of World Records for jackpot payouts. The record-setting jackpot of €17,879,645.12 was awarded in 2015, and since then Microgaming has paid out massive sums, including a €13,328,028.16 win awarded earlier this year, and the record-breaking €18,915,872.81 jackpot that was triggered in September 2018.
