It has been a fairly fascinating end of April for big money progressive jackpot slot machine games. Two major progressives paid out the prizes last week, with players scooping a cool £10m in cash in two big wins.
8m Payout
It seems like only yesterday that Mega Moolah paid out over £6.25m to one lucky punter. Now, Microgaming’s leading progressive jackpot slot machine has done it again, this time coughing out £8m to a lucky player at a relatively unknown mobile casino website. The slot machine’s latest win is still quite some way off the £13m record jackpot pay-out, but nobody is going to turn their nose at £8m.
Impressive Win
On April 27, the lucky players managed to pocket the biggest Mega Moolah cash prize since August 2016, when one player won £7.9m. The jackpot rose from £4.3m to £8m in a matter of weeks, making the win even more impressive. The public just can’t seem to get enough of this major Microgaming developed progressive slot.
Another Jackpot Win
Also, last week, a player managed to scoop £3.1m playing one of the lesser-known progressives. Blueprint Gaming’s Pig Wizard slot was the venue for the win, which is a record progressive jackpot prize for Blueprint Gaming. The player bagged their win on April 21, and they wagered just 20p a spin on the game to win their cash prize. The big win came in at SkyVegas Casino.
Both Mega Moolah and Pig Wizard’s cash prizes are won at random. Whilst the Mega Moolah jackpot holds the record for the biggest ever progressive prize paid out to a player, and has four progressives to be won; the Pig Wizard slot has just the one jackpot, and it is often worth considerably less than its more popular rival. Again, nobody is going to turn their nose up at over £3m worth of cash.
