Birmingham man wins the UK's Biggest Ever Online Jackpot - Over £2million!

A LUCKY punter has scooped the UK’s highest ever online jackpot – winning £2,058,888 while playing the slot machines from the comfort of his own home.

The online player bagged the record-breaking prize while playing the Millionaires Club online slot at www.LittlewoodsCasino.com, becoming the online gaming world’s first ever UK double millionaire.

The Birmingham-based player, who has chosen to remain anonymous apart from his online username Mojo, won the Progressive Jackpot on the popular game, which had been accruing in value for around two years.

He bravely passed through three bonus rounds – at which point he could have lost his entire winnings - before scooping the amazing jackpot and becoming the biggest UK online gaming winner in history.

He said: “I'm ecstatic to win such an amazing amount from playing online slots at Littlewoods Casino. I came back to their casino last month after an 18 month break and I'm so glad I did.”

The Millionaires Club slot game is derived from the traditional three-reel “fruit” machines popularised in pubs and clubs across the country in previous decades.

But the game has now been transformed into a nine line, 5 reel game with substantially higher jackpots and the option to change the “stake” on each spin.

The Littlewoods Casino win also dwarves the jackpot available on traditional machines with just a £1000 limit on offer on slot machines in UK land-based casino’s and a maximum of £25 in pubs.

Scott Richardson, head of marketing at Littlewoods Casino, said: “We are absolutely delighted that this jackpot has been won.

“Thousands of online players have tried their luck at this jackpot over the past two years and some have come very close indeed.

“This size of jackpot is such a life-changing amount and we are proud that we can offer our players the chance to win such a fabulous amount of money without even leaving their homes.


“The bottom line is that this kind of jackpot isn’t available in traditional slot machines and our online players have the chance to win jackpots that make a real difference. I really doubt you would be able to fit two million pound coins into a pint glass anyway!”

LittlewoodsCasino.com, which is part of Littlewoods Gaming - one of the UK’s oldest and trusted gaming companies, still has over £850,000 in jackpots waiting to be won online.

Littlewoods Gaming is most famous for its iconic Littlewoods Football Pools and has already created more than 100 millionaires and paid out to more than 60 million winners throughout its 84-year history.

Now, the ascent of the online gaming industry is continuing to see Littlewoods adding to these new millionaires.

Mr Richardson added: “This win shows that after 84 years, Littlewoods continues to make its customers millionaires from new and exciting products.”

About Millionaires Club Slot:
Originally designed as a classic 3-reel slot game, The Millionaires Club was transformed into a progressive 9-line, 5-reel game that operates as a video slot machine back in 2005. Besides great graphics and an exciting bonus round, what makes this game special, is that you can change the value of the coin denominations you wish to play (from 10p up to £20) without having to change machines.

Like most video slot machines your goal is to gain access to the Bonus round. The bonus round is accessed when three Millionaire Club symbols appear in any position on any 3 reels. Once you enter the Bonus game you will see three prize wheels. Once the spin button is hit to begin the game, the outermost wheel will spin and come to rest on either a number or an arrow. If it lands on a number your original bet will be multiplied by that number. If it lands on an arrow, you will move on to the next wheel and so on.

Each time you land on a number your total bonus will appear on the screen and you have a choice to quit the bonus game and keep all your bonus winnings or to continue spinning. If you chose to quit all you’re bonus money is added to your bankroll and you return to regular game play. If you want to take a risk and go for the big bucks you can continue to spin the wheel (with the goal of landing on an arrow to move to the next wheel where the multiplier numbers are higher). If you take this route a “B” will replace all the numbers that you’ve already landed on and if you land on a “B” you Bust, the bonus game is over and you lose all the bonus money you’ve accumulated.

If you make it all the way to the final wheel you will be awarded only one spin. This is where all your dreams can come true and you could win the biggest Jackpot at any online casino.
