Microgaming Jackpot Networks Pays Out $250,000,000

The winners just keep coming with the Microgaming progressive jackpot network now passing $250,000,000 worth of jackpots won. Launched five years ago with the Cash Splash slot the network now features 21 different progressive games with jackpots ranging from $1000 to over $5,000,000.

The ascent to the landmark total was given a boost thanks to last month's bumper payday for Finnish player Klaus E, who became an instant millionaire after placing a $0.50 bet on the Mega Moola Progressive Slot Machine and walking away with a cool $5.5 million.

Klaus is not the only players to join the instant millionaires club. There have ben 13 lucky online slot players who have won jackpots on $1,000,000 or more. There have also been another 6,500 players who have won smaller jackpots since the progressive network was launched.

"Reaching $250 million in payouts is an unbelievable milestone and speaks volumes about Microgaming's commitment to making sure we offer our operators' players the most attractive gaming experience on the net."

" We already have Mega Moolah over $3 million again and Roulette Royale and Major Millions are climbing swiftly towards $1million, so I'm sure it won't be long before we're celebrating reaching the $300 million mark." said Roger Raatgever, CEO of Microgaming.

All of the Microgaming progressive are multi-currency games. This means that the jackpot total is the same no matter what currency you play in. All jackpots are also paid in one lump sum.
