March 23, 2009 (InfoPowa News) — Two major progressive slot hits recently have encouraged fans of the genre, which regularly throws up newsworthy wins from a variety of games furnished by a diversity of industry software providers.
The most recent win — for a whopping $846,884 — has been reported by PartyCasino.com, although details on the winner are still sparse. The online casino's Gold Mega progressive delivered the win to an as-yet-unidentified player.
Games linked to the Gold Mega Jackpot include the "Godfather" slot machine, as well as Super Star, Super Joker, Super Fortune Wheel, Super Mystic and Mega Fortune Wheel.
The Party Casino win follows another major six-figure progressive hit at Slotland.com, breaking that venue's previous record of $195,083 and setting the bar higher. Player Forgomo, a regular at the site playing on its Heavy Metal progressive slot, won $200,111 at the end of February, telling management: "I never dreamed I’d pay off my mortgage with an online slots win. I just make small bets and win a few dollars once in awhile. Now, let’s just say I’m not going to lose any sleep over my credit card balance!"
