LAS VEGAS, March 11, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- "Mega" was
the prevailing theme, when one lucky player hit a mega-sized
$1,137,006.44 jackpot on global
gaming entertainment leader, IGT's (NYSE: IGT) famed MegaJackpots®
game, Megabucks® $1 Spinning Reel - Double 3x4x5x Times Pay®
at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, CT
on March 7, 2014.
The winner, who wished to remain anonymous, stated this was not
the player's first brush with luck in the casino, sharing that the
slot enthusiast was "familiar to winning" and had hit several
sizable jackpots in the past. Even given this history of winning
ways, the Mohegan Sun guest was "rattled for a couple moments" when
seeing the amount of the colossal win. The player immediately
called family to share the great news, stating that family members
were in disbelief when they heard the news. Although this player
plays a variety of machines, the winner often carves out time to
stop by Megabucks because it is known for big hits.
IGT launched the MegaJackpots® progressive product line in 1986
and has since produced thousands of winners with jackpots ranging
from $1 million to the world-record
slot jackpot of more than $39
million.
