Online casinos have become an essential fabric of the gaming industry in Michigan. Giving customers a chance to win huge jackpots is a major reason why. One such slot jackpot currently sits at $6.46 million, the largest in US online casino history.
DraftKings Casino Michigan shared details of their growing jackpot with PlayMichigan via email.
Enhancing the player experience is among one of the top priorities for DraftKings, along with most Michigan online casinos. Jason March, VP of iGaming Marketing and Operations, said in a statement:
“We take a lot of pride in providing our customers with a best-in-class experience, so it’s always exciting to see our jackpots reach historic numbers knowing one of our DraftKings Casino players is going to take home the largest U.S. jackpot in online casino history.
“Our current $6.46 million jackpot is monumental not only for DraftKings but for us in Michigan, and we look forward to celebrating the winner of this record-setting jackpot.”
How to win the record-breaking casino jackpot at DraftKings
The rules to enter and possibly win the all-time jackpot are rather simple. DraftKings provides a list of the games connected to the linked progressive jackpot.
There are two ways to opt in to become eligible to win the record jackpot. According to DraftKings, those two ways include:
- Click the ‘Opt In and Play’ button on the Linked Game tile prior to launching the Linked Game.
- Click the ‘Opt In’ button on the in-game Jackpot panel at the top of the screen of the Linked Game.
Customers can play one of the 26 games listed for as low as $0.20 a spin, or $0.20 per bet for table games.
The first game on the list is Monopoly Big Spin, which resembles a roulette table. Customers can place a bet on different colors with each color representing a different payout, and a wheel spins.
Landing on Chance, Community Chest, GO! or Free Parking triggers the bonus wheel, which can raise payouts up to 200 times.
The Capital Gains slot is another popular title in DraftKings’ library that is eligible for the jackpot. It’s a 5×3 reel that allows customers to win all ways across. There are 243 ways to win with a return to player percentage of 95.96%. Players can earn up to 15 free spins and a payout of 1,000 times a bet.
How high could the record iGaming jackpot get?
There’s essentially no telling how large the jackpot can go. The longer it goes without anyone hitting it, the more it will grow. It’s important to note that as of Oct. 18, the jackpot stands at exactly $6,450,023 and is only available to Michigan players.
DraftKings includes a variety of slots and table games that are eligible for the jackpot. Some others include:
- DraftKings Football Blackjack
- DraftKings American Roulette
- 100,000 Pyramid
- Wheel of Fortune: Triple Extreme Spin
- Hyper Gold
- Cats
A jackpot this large will certainly entice some players to try their luck at DraftKings or keep them playing there. In addition to the jackpot incentive, DraftKings recently added 67 new game titles on its iGaming platform last month.
DraftKings is dedicated to keeping its library fresh, with plenty to offer customers, including record-setting jackpots.
