What and When
April 19 2018: a player won $5.7 million.
The story
Reportedly from Canada, S. K. (full name not known), became the 3rd Mega Moolah winner of 2018. Mind you that this is the 14th month straight that the big jackpot has been won, an extraordinary feat.
The last time the jackpot wasn’t won a monthly basis was back in February 2017. Although it is worth noting that year of 2017 was a record breaking year in terms of amounts won. The big jackpot prize, yes you read that correctly, the BIG one, was won a staggering amount of 12 times. We’re speaking here about amounts in the €5 million euros. Enough reasons to get excited, right? The question is whether that record will be beaten this year. Having some experience monitoring the Mega Moolah and its winnings, I’ve seen a great increase in both the amounts won as the frequency. So if you ask me, I definitely believe that 2018 is going to be the year.
How did he win?
S.K. won an amazing amount of $5,691,921.42 with just a 25 cent bet on April 19th 2018 at the casino. While he made no comments himself, winning this amount of money with just 25 cents is nothing short of a miracle. But hey, with the Mega Moolah you never know.
Gambling on mobile
April’s winner won the jackpot prize while playing on his mobile phone. This is the first time that happened, all the reason to be excited for this Canadian player who won the Mega Moolah jackpot perhaps from his lazy chair at home or maybe from the office for some sneaky work distraction.
