Michigan Online Slot Player Wins $1 Million At BetMGM

A player from Southfield, Michigan, won $1 million on a 40-cent bet at BetMGM while playing Bison Fury in April. The player, who chose to remain anonymous, hit the progressive jackpot on the casino game developed in-house by Entain.

They plan to spend some of the winnings on a house.

Bison Fury is a five-reel, ‘All Ways’ slot featuring an American wilderness theme, over 1,000 ways to win in the base game and bonus spins. It is available exclusively on BetMGM casino platforms.

In a separate spin this spring, a player from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, won “The Big One Colossal Cash” jackpot of $525,726 during her lunch break on MGM Grand Millions Megaways at Borgata Online. The player intends to pay off debt with the winnings.

MGM Grand Millions Megaways is a five-reel, 243 ways to win slot game with imagery of gold lion statues, cash bundles and gold bars. Like Bison Fury, it was developed in-house by Entain exclusively for BetMGM casino platforms.

“BetMGM congratulates the recent winners at Borgata Online and BetMGM on their big jackpots,” said Angus Nisbet, Vice President of Gaming at BetMGM. “We love making moments like this even more memorable through our new jackpot program.”

BetMGM recently launched a jackpot program offering a trip to an MGM Resorts property in Las Vegas or nearest to the winner’s home for anyone winning over $500,000. The initiative aims to enhance the excitement and provide a memorable experience.

BetMGM casino platforms awarded over $138 million in progressive jackpots in 2023, a 32% increase year-over-year. Exclusive Entain titles like Bison Fury and MGM Grand Million Megaways accounted for over half the total.
