Mega Moolah Slot Pays Out $16 Million

The Mega Moolah progressive jackpot slots network has a reputation for paying out enormous sums to lucky players. As such, anticipation was running high for the first big winner of 2020. It took a few months, but now it seems as if that winner has finally been declared; a Canadian casino enthusiast who is being awarded an astonishing $16 million.

As the win is so recent, full details are yet to be released. As it stands however, the story is that on the 5^th April 2020, the jackpot amount climbed to a stunning $16 million. Soon after this, a Canadian slots player managed to snatch the prize, walking away an instant millionaire, several times over.

Big, But Not The Biggest

You would think that a jackpot payout of this sum would be the biggest in Mega Moolah history. But it turns out that this is only the 3^rd biggest. The biggest win to date was a record smashing amount paid out on the 30^th of January 2019, which came to a gobsmacking $20 million. Mega Moolah has set Guinness World Records for its incredible jackpot wins, and still holds the record for the largest online and mobile slots payouts ever.

Interestingly, this is the first major Mega Moolah win since December 2019. Interestingly enough, the four months between then and now are the longest that have ever transpired without a new winner. Taking a closer look, it can be seen that, in the four months prior to this unusual gap, between September 2019 and December 2019, 5 wins were awarded. Though these 5 rapid wins were smaller by far, they were still significant.

Canadians Lead In Wins

With this latest lucky Canadian managing to score big, it is worth mentioning that Canada as a whole is the most frequent winner of Mega Moolah jackpots. A total of 19 winners have lived in Canada, clearly making it the country with one of the most progressive jackpot slots enthusiasts.

Next in line is Europe with 14 wins, then the United Kingdom with 9, and the United States with 8. If being specific, all 19 Canadian winners come together to equal a grand total of around CA$134 million being paid out.

When the next win will strike is unknown, but with the jackpot amount being set back to its seed value of $1 million and climbing, players will surely be clamouring to try their luck.
