Within the space of a week a number of Playtech progressive jackpot online slots have delivered an aggregate payout of over £5 million. The bulk of the booty came from the flagship title Beach Life. But others chipped in with their contributions.

The Beach Life hit came on Monday July 6, when a Midlands-based U.K. player username ‘Hilton77’ amassed a gigantic £3.7 million jackpot by landing five sun symbols on the 20th payline. This was the second largest single payout by the software provider Playtech in its 16-year history. Incidentally the largest Playtech jackpot win of £4.4 million in February 2012 also was recorded on this progressive jackpot slot. Parents will get a new bungalow, nieces and nephews will get a good start in life and friends will get a royal treat said Hilton.

The Playtech rally actually began before the Beach Life hit when a player discovered the crock of gold at the end of the rainbow on classic slot game Leprechaun's Luck. It was worth £120,000, nowhere near £3.7 million but more than welcome all the same. Two days after the Beach Life payout another player at a Playtech online casino plundered a £450,000 jackpot appropriately on the Chests of Plenty online slot. Within the blinking of an eyelid, the Playtech favorite Adventures in Wonderland yielded its bounty. The branded online slot game Gladiator also added its contribution.

Shimon Akad, COO of Playtech, said, “To have so many progressives fall is incredible and we’re delighted, but it’s not unusual with the quality and range of best performing slots we have within our industry-leading casino offering.” He added that Playtech offers some of the biggest and best jackpots and progressive games in the online casino industry and both operators and players benefit from this. Despite the resetting of such big titles, players at Playtech powered online casinos can expect more winners with three progressive jackpots of more than £1 million expected to drop any day. The leader at the moment is Monty Python's Spamalot with the jackpot ticker at £1.8 million. This risqué branded slot has the progressive hit through a multi-tier bonus game. The other progressive slots are Jackpot Giant at £1.6 million and Funky Fruits at £1.1 million.

A number of online casinos recommended by CasinoAdvisor are powered by Playtech. The list includes Omni Casino and Casino Tropez. They offer the complete range of over 500 online casino games from Playtech along with attractive welcome bonus packages for new players.
