BetMGM player wins largest ever jackpot in US online casino history

BetMGM has paid out $6.4 million to a player in New Jersey, the largest ever online casino jackpot win in the United States.

The player from New Jersey won “The Big One” on August 19 on a $200 bet while playing Fruit Blaster.

The jackpot reached an operator record of $4 million in late February and slowly crept up throughout the year until it reached $6.4 million.

Following the record win, “The Big One” progressive jackpot in New Jersey has been reset, and at the time of writing the new jackpot is $1.2 million.

The previous record win was also at BetMGM, when it paid out $3.5 million in 2021.

“BetMGM congratulates the winner on this historic jackpot. It’s these ‘you never know when’ moments that make progressive jackpots especially thrilling,” said Angus Nisbet, BetMGM vice president of gaming.

“In addition to the jackpot, we hope the player enjoys their trip to an MGM Resort in the near future.”
