Jump ahead to the main content
A player who recently scored big at BetMGM Casino is now feeling like they’ve hit the jackpot of Michigan’s online casinos.
You can also call it the Double Jackpot or the quarter-million bonanza, which is quite a substantial amount of money, in case you were wondering.
On Friday, the top Michigan online casino revenue holder declared that a player from BetMGM Casino in the state struck luck and won an impressive $251,000 playing the newly introduced Everi game called “Double Jackpot.”
Jackpot player: ‘It is true; you can win’
“I must admit, I’m still in disbelief. It’s something many players aspire to, but it’s actually real; you can emerge victorious,” expressed the fortunate player, who wishes to remain unidentified, as stated in a BetMGM press release. “Usually, I thoroughly enjoy playing exclusive BetMGM games like MGM Grand Millions that aren’t available elsewhere. However, on the night of my triumph, I decided to explore a different game.”
“It paid off!”
It could be argued that way. Moreover, BetMGM has distributed numerous summer jackpots, making it evident that this is not an isolated occurrence.
During June 2021, a fortunate individual playing on BetMGM in their respective state struck gold by winning the incredible “The Big One Colossal Cash” jackpot. This remarkable feat involved transforming a mere $4 bet into an astonishing sum exceeding $1 million. Additionally, another player seized the opportunity and triumphantly claimed the “Mega Jackpot,” amassing over $990,000 from their spin-and-win endeavor.
BetMGM still pacing Michigan online casino market
The news of such wins serves a dual purpose for BetMGM. Firstly, it reassures players that it is indeed possible to achieve significant winnings on its online casino platform.
Furthermore, it serves as a reminder to all individuals that there exists a substantial number of participants who are eager to engage in the activity from the beginning.
In the rapidly growing online casino market of Michigan, BetMGM has consistently upheld its position as the leading revenue generator. As per the latest revenue reports for June, BetMGM secured the top spot, earning an impressive $33.8 million, which accounted for a substantial 37.8% share of the market.
