Playing online casino games is not only a great way to entertain yourself, but it can also be a very lucrative experience.
One lucky player from Lower Saxony in Germany could hardly believe his luck after managing to hit a staggering jackpot while playing one of the most popular progressive slots at PokerStars Casino.
Not a Bad Day, We Guess
The man, who works as a journalist, came home from work around 9 pm and decided to take a break from his busy day by playing a video slot game. That was definitely a life-changing decision since he soon hit a staggering €3.5 million jackpot on NetEnt's famous release Mega Fortune.
We should mention he bet only a little over €2 when he triggered the game's Free Spins round and after only two spins activated the Bonus game that eventually led him to this fantastic prize.
Launched back in 2009, Mega Fortune has since become one of the most popular and most lucrative video slots in the market, awarding hundreds of millions in jackpot prizes over the years.
The game features a five-reel three-row layout with a total of 25 paylines, bringing an entertaining and luxurious theme, while its reels are populated with symbols including cocktails, diamonds and gold watches. Thanks to its exciting features players have the chance to win stunning prizes, although the most appealing part of this game are the progressive jackpots it offers. There are four of them – Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega, with the last one having the power to award jackpots worth a couple of millions.
Waiting for the Next Millionaire
Since the beginning of the year, the NetEnt progressive slot has awarded a total of eight multi-million games. This one, although quite huge, pales in comparison to the record-breaking one worth €18.9 million won less than a month ago by a punter playing Mega Moolah at Grand Mondial Casino.
Still, the latest jackpot one of the biggest prizes of the year, and the biggest win recorded at PokerStars Casino since its launch.
The lucky German punter said he would use the winnings to make his dreams come true by buying a house and helping his family members.
Commenting on the latest jackpot, Henrik Fagerlund, Chief Product Officer for NetEnt said Mega Fortune had once again underline its legendary status among the players, this time by paying out the biggest cash prize in Stars’ history, bringing the number of Mega Fortune millionaires to eight in 2018.
