When asked to comment on his win, the player said: “This is incredible. I couldn’t believe my eyes, and it all happened so very fast!” He is the latest winner in a string of multi-million winners on Net Entertainment’s progressive jackpot Mega Fortune. Last January of this year, the jackpot was hit by a man from Finland to a value of €6.9 million.

And let’s not forget last year when Mega Fortune awarded a single prize of €11.7 million to another Norwegian player.

Wasn’t it the “luck of the Irish” and not the luck of the Norwegians?? It certainly looks like the Norwegians are winning!

In fact, the €11.7 million win became a world record payout (confirmed by the Guinness World Records) for an online slot game. Net Entertainment’s Mega Fortune is a progressive jackpot slot and part of the company’s jackpot network, pooling the liquidity of players from several of Europe’s largest online casinos including our favourite casino.

In just the last two years, Mega Fortune has paid out over €30 million to players worldwide. That is an incredible amount! Per Eriksson, newly appointed CEO of Net Entertainment stated in a press release regarding the wins: “It is incredible how high the jackpot built up after being won just two months earlier. We would like to congratulate the winner on his huge success and we look forward to hopefully making many more millionaires in the coming months.”

Try the Mega Fortune.

The Mega Moolah has made two millionaires in 2012. The first jackpot of the year was hit in March for $1.5m to a winner that has chosen to remain anonymous so far. If the jackpots continue to be hit at this rate the Mega Moolah may very well break the record for jackpots over one million won in a single year.

Winning the lottery is described as a life-changing experience, but you don’t actually need to win a seven figure sum to start enjoying the benefits of being a millionaire. In fact you could start living like a winner today by playing Mega Moolah or any other jackpot game in the casinos here. The odds of winning lotto are awful. You have better chances of being struck by lightning, than to winning lottery! In the UK, winning in lotto that has six main numbers provides the odds of about 1 in 14 million! These are extremely low odds.

With slots the odds of hitting a particular symbol or combination of symbols depends on how the reel is set up and on the payback percentages. For example a payback percentage of 90 would give away 90 percent of times. Mega Moolah’s payout percentages are 94 to 95 percent! And since the computer always pulls up new random numbers, you have exactly the same chance of hitting the jackpot every single time you press the button to spin the reels.

Mega Moolah’s key feature is the randomly triggered Jackpot wheel. Those that are lucky enough to gaze upon the magic wheel (and it does happen frequently) will get the opportunity to win one of four different jackpot levels dependent on the outcome of the spinning wheel. Here you have much better odds winning a life-changing amount than in lotto!

Good luck folks!

After taxes, the record payout will be closer to $389 million if the winner picks to cash in. Winners can also take payments annually for 26 years. A win in Delaware and California will be worth more due to the lack of income tax on winnings.

The chances of winning the Mega Millions jackpot tonight are about one in 176 million, according to U.S. lottery officials.

The largest Mega Millions jackpot ever won was $390 million in March 2007, when the prize was split between two tickets sold in the states of Georgia and New Jersey.

The Mega Millions lottery drew a massive line at the Bluebird Liquor in Lawndale, California.

Update (31 March 2012): The Mega Millions lottery jackpot went up to $640 million! Three lucky winners in Maryland, Kansas and Illinois will now split the record-breaking jackpot. Each store that sold a winning ticket will also receive a $100,000 bonus. The winning numbers were 2, 4, 23, 38, 46 and the Mega Ball was 23.

What makes these games unique in their own way is that there’s not just one progressive jackpot, but two. However the Mega Moolah has four progressive jackpots so having two progressives is nothing new to Mega Moolah players. However these three slots are fun and the rewards can be quite generous; on average the Mega Wonder Jackpot pays 250,000 euros, which is a lot more that most slots will ever pay.

So why not head on over to WonderJackpot.com and test the demo games. On the site you can also find a download for Mac computers!

Icy Wonders (bonus feature) video

The Lord of the Rings is now part of the Mega Moolah jackpot network and it functions in exactly the same way as Mega Moolah’s four jackpot levels; Mini, Minor, Major, and Mega. On Lord of the Rings these four are called Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Mithril. And on 28 December 2011 Susan spun the jackpot wheel and it stopped on the single Mithril wheel slot paying her the maximum jackpot amount at that exact time.

Earlier in 2011 and prior to Susan winning her life changing jackpot, a massive amount of over $5.3m million was hit on the traditional Mega Moolah game.

In the Lord of the Rings video below you can see the Jackpot Wheel feature. And in this example I nearly hit Mithril – just one more notch to go…!

A new “Gollum feature” has also been added, where an animated Gollum figure appears at random to climb over the reels turning up the free spins and multipliers and doing other fun and weird things.

In this Lord of the Rings video you will see Gollum in action.
