Cryptologic is a software provider that does not have too many large payout progressive jackpot online slot games in its portfolio. The focus is more on the progressive jackpots that payout smaller amounts more frequently. The flagship Cryptologic progressive jackpot is Millionaires Club. It is an occasion for celebration at Cryptologic online casinos when this jackpot is hit.
Amaya Gaming is the Canadian Company that owns Cryptologic. It has issued a press release stating that Millionaires Club progressive jackpot was hit in the first week of May. The lucky winner was a 44-year-old woman whose name and place of residence have not been made public. She received a life-changing payout of €2.8 million. The Amaya press release, however, did provide some information about the hit. The winner logged in on her favorite Cryptologic online casino Jaxx after returning from work. She hit the massive progressive jackpot on a wager of only €5. Her first reaction was that she almost fainted. The winner told Amaya Gaming that she would spend some of this payout on a new home and would also take her family on a holiday. Being of prudent nature she would invest a reasonable portion of the winnings in a savings bank account. She did agree that her two children will now be able to lead a much more comfortable life. Mark Irvine from Jaxx online casino said, “It is a reminder about the high level of excitement that Amaya Gaming games generate for our players and one of the many reasons we love Amaya Gaming games.”
David Baazov, Chief Executive Officer for Amaya Gaming, also expressed his pleasure on the Millionaire’s Club progressive jackpot being hit. He remarked that this slot game continues to regularly change lives. This present hit is the third highest ever on the Millionaires Club progressive jackpot. The second highest payout was recorded in June 2011 when a player hit the jackpot for €3.1 million. The top payout of almost €7 million was registered in 2007. This fantastic online slot game was launched in 2004 and has been hit 17 times for a total payout of €24 million. On an average it has paid more than €1 million every time.
The path to the progressive jackpot is not an easy one. First the Millionaires Club logo has to trigger the wheel of wealth bonus round. In the first level the player has to collect three jackpot tokens before he is awarded three boobies for entering the wheel of wealth round. In this round the player has to pass through the two outer wheels and reach the third inner wheel. If he continues to remain lucky he will hit the progressive jackpot when this wheel is spun.
