MEGA MOOLAH NOW OVER $3 MILLION AND COUNTING

Another major Internet progressive jackpot ready to pop?

It looks as if the next seriously large progressive win could come from Microgaming's Mega Moolah, which this week topped the $3 million mark and is still growing.

With Cryptologic's record breaking Millionaire's Club multi-millions now won, the Mega Moolah offering has replaced it as the biggest jackpot on the Internet progressives scene.

The slot is Microgaming’s first four tiered progressive that offers players four progressive jackpots to aim for. The 5 reel, 25 pay-line game starts at $1million and has three added possibilities – Major $10 000, Minor $100 and Mini $10, supported by a range of Wild, Free Spin, Scatter and Multiplayer opportunities.

Microgaming's Progressive Jackpot Network has paid out over $225 million since launch to over 6 500 players worldwide, and the big wins are paid out in a single tranche. It has made 11 instant millionaires to date.

Very nice jackpot size it is too although my personal opinion is that it wont be won until it gets over the jackpot won on the millions slot. I think MG want to claim the title as having the largest ever paid out jackpot.

Oh and who are you advertising for jetset? you sound like a commercial lol

Jetset is probably the closest thing you can get to an information expert on online gambling. His news are always current and first-rate stuff. Actually, he should be head-hunted by MG, Playtech and the likes.

Thanks for that, Chuchu....but no thanks on the headhunted part!

We do our own thing, are beholden to no-one, and aim to keep it that way!

how do you win it? do you have to have five of a certain symbol on a certain payline? and if this isn't the highest-numbered payline, can you play less than max lines? is there a minimum bet amount to be eligible? i.e. if the required line is line 12, can i play 12 lines @ 1 cent and still be in the running to win it?

Rapid fire jackpot. Chance of hitting the jackpot-wheel feature is proportional to bet size. So play any number of lines you like and bet-size.

ah. then i agree with audi they will prevent it from hitting until it goes record high. when he first said that, i thought "how are they going to prevent a valid reel combo from coming up unless they rig the game", but they can easily rig a feature wheel, because with only one sliver being the jackpot, no one will suspect a fix when they miss it on their spin.

Why is the jackpot rarely quoted as £3m (GBP)? This is roughly quivalent to $6m (USD) - and is the true value of the jackpot, since it is always stored in the strongest currency (GBP) while paying out the same numerical figure whichever currency it's hit in. Would sound much more impressive!

good thing i keep my mg accounts in pounds! should i decide to play for it i'll be playing with the best ev. how does this slot play apart from the jackpot feature? does it just eat money all day long?
