Michigan: DraftKings Casino player wins over $9 million, the largest online casino jackpot in US history

DraftKings Casino awarded $9.28 million to a lucky player in Michigan last Wednesday, marking the largest online casino jackpot in US history. "The historic jackpot, which started at $1,000,000 and has been growing since February 2024, was won on a $.20 bet playing Irish Pot Luck," the company confirmed.
 
The multi-million dollar jackpot was part of DraftKings Casino's proprietary, in-house Single Level Progressive Jackpot offering, which allows DraftKings customers to opt-in to make an additional wager on several jackpot-eligible games, including DraftKings Rocket, DraftKings Fire Buffalo and DraftKings Blackjack, for a chance at winning the progressive jackpot.

"To be able to award the largest online casino jackpot in U.S. history is an amazing testament to the DraftKings Casino team who work tirelessly to deliver customers a best-in-class experience. Congratulations to the winner, we look forward to celebrating our next big jackpot win."
