Mega Moolah Online At Ten Million Credits

Probably by the time this post is up, the Mega Moolah progressive jackpot would have breached the 10 million mark or would have been hit. At the time of writing it stands at 9,945,248 and is growing at over 65,000 credits per day. A lot of people in the online casino industry are astounded that the progressive jackpot has not been hit with the amount of traffic it is carrying.

John Quinn, Head of Casino at Microgaming, said less than a month ago. “We’ve watched the progressive ticker grow considerably over the last few months, and anticipation is building as to when it’s going to be triggered.” That anticipation is still building. Quinn pointed out one important feature about Mega Moolah and other Microgaming progressive jackpots. The winner of millions will take home the moolah in one lump sum. “We don’t believe in annuities!” he added. Crazy Vegas is a highly recommended Microgaming online casino. It is a brand of the Vegas Partner Lounge group. Casino manager and spokesperson Harry Von Schlussel commented, “We’re astounded that this great progressive slot still hasn’t awarded a winner! We’ve seen a major influx of players playing this in the hopes of becoming instant millionaires.”

There are several questions that are raising the anticipation bar. Perhaps the most important is the currency in which the jackpot will be hit. The winning amount shown on the progressive ticker is paid out in the currency in which the winner has played the game. Therefore, if the winner is from the UK then the payment is in British pounds. If the winner is from Spain, he or she would be paid in euros. The last winner was wagering in Canadian dollars. Microgaming therefore saved a packet on the payout. But this conscientious software provider put the money back into the jackpot. Instead of resetting it to the usual one million credits, the jackpot began again from over three million credits.

Every Microgaming online casino will be hoping that the winner is one of their members. A big win like this is huge publicity for the online casino. Blackjack Ballroom online casino provided one of the first winners on Mega Moolah seven years ago. Klaus hit the jackpot for over $5.5 million. Blackjack Ballroom online casino is still proudly displaying the event on its home page.

There is a tantalizing uncertainty in the hitting of progressive jackpots. Mega Moolah may provide a winner tomorrow or may take the ticker up to over 15 million before it is hit.
