By Simon Wright, Last updated Feb 4, 2021

A lucky player hailing from the UK is celebrating a life changing win after hitting the progressive jackpot whilst playing Microgaming’s Mega Moolah slot game at Genesis Casino. The player who has decided to remain anonymous  won £2,772,916.45 ( €3,252,353.70 ) back on the 8th November, with software provider Microgaming only releasing details of the big win during the past week.

The player was betting at £6.25 ( €7.25 ) a spin when he hit the progressive jackpot. As with all progressive jackpot wins on the Microgaming progressive network, the win will be paid out in one go, in full. Unlike some other online casino software providers, who drip feed the winnings to their successful players.

Mega Moolah is one of Microgaming’s oldest progressive jackpot slot game, having been released back in 2006 and last month, the month of this win in question, celebrated its 13th birthday.

The casino which the player hit the win on, Genesis Casino, is owned and operated by Genesis Global Ltd and has been in operation since 2014.

Speaking about the Mega Moolah win, Microgaming’s Chief Operating Officer, Andrew Clucas, said: “Congratulations to Genesis Casino and the lucky winner on this truly life-changing win. Mega Moolah has once again delivered an amazing payout. Our industry-leading progressive jackpot network has now paid out €1.1 bn.”

The Chief Executive Officer of Genesis Casino’s owners, Ariel Reem, commenting on the Mega Moolah jackpot being hit at their casino, stated: “We’re ecstatic for the player on their massive win on the Mega Moolah jackpot! It’s been a thrilling ride, but one lucky player had to strike – congratulations from everyone at Genesis Casino! We look forward to seeing many more winners on our platform.”
