Christmas came early for a player on Yggdrasil Gaming’s Joker Millions progressive jackpot slot, who won almost €3.3 million on Thursday 23rd December.
The lucky player was spinning the reels on sunnyplayer.com, a brand of Cherry iGaming, when he hit the jackpot of €3,291,513 from a bet of just €2.50.
The win was the largest to date on Joker Millions, beating previous big wins of €2.9 million, €720,000 and €460,000, all of which have been collected since March 2015.
Fredrik Elmqvist, CEO at Yggdrasil Gaming, said: “We were thrilled to see a player win such a life changing sum of money, especially so close to Christmas and while playing one of our slots games.
“Joker Millions is our first progressive slot and it is loved by both operators and players. With more operators continuing to join the Yggdrasil network, the jackpot will be building up again quickly.”
The CMO of sunnyplayer commented: “We love it when one of our players wins big, and this is among the largest we have ever see on our site. It goes to show big wins can happen, but you have to be spinning the reels to be in with the chance of scooping the prize!”
