Michigan Player Wins $1 Million on BetMGM’s Bison Fury
Leading iGaming operator BetMGM announced that a player from Michigan landed a massive $1 million jackpot at its app in April. At the request of the player, their identity will remain anonymous.
However, what is not a secret is the player’s plans for the winnings, which apparently will be used as an investment for a new house. The operator revealed another fact relating to the huge win. The jackpot was won with a 40-cent wager on the slot game Bison Fury.
In-House Slots Generated the Jackpots
Both slots that generated the big jackpot wins this spring at BetMGM apps, Bison Fury, and MGM Grand Millions Megaways are created by in-house developer Entain. Bison Fury is a 5-reel slot with over 1,000 ways to win, inspired by a wilderness theme and exclusively offered at BetMGM Casino. The 5-reel format with 243 ways to win is used for MGM Grand Millions Megaways, based on the cult land-based casino.
BetMGM recently inaugurated a new jackpot program accessible to players who have won over $500K. The reward includes a trip to a Las Vegas MGM Resorts International property or any other casino location close to the winner’s residency. The program's goal is to boost the thrill of winning a jackpot and offer winners an opportunity to create memorable experiences and demonstrate BetMGM’s connection with MGM Resorts International.
Generous Progressive Jackpot Payouts
BetMGM’s online casino platforms in U.S. markets awarded over $138 million in progressive jackpot payouts in 2023. That number represents a 32% year-over-year increase. An interesting fact is that nearly half of those $138 million in jackpot wins were won on slots developed by Entain.
BetMGM is currently ranked as the second operator in the Great Lakes State according to revenue data generated, after holding the crown for 39 consecutive months. The operator offers over 2,700 casino games, provides competitive , and has one of the largest exclusive jackpot networks.
