Lucky punter lands €7.8m Yggdrasil jackpot at LeoVegas

One lucky punter’s life has changed overnight after landing an SEK 80 million (€7.8m) jackpot at LeoVegas Casino.

The Swedish gambler struck gold while playing Yggdrasil Gaming’s Joker Millions progressive jackpot slot last Friday night.

The record haul was won with a bet of only SEK 5 (EUR 50c) on the LeoVegas mobile casino platform.

“What a record win!” said James Ford, Head of Casino at LeoVegas.

“Progressives like this always create excitement

“We’ve been keeping a close eye on this one in anticipation that it would drop.

“We’re really happy it was triggered at LeoVegas and pass a huge congratulations on to our lucky player.”

Launched in 2015, Joker Millions is one of two global progressive slots produced by Yggdrasil.

With this latest windfall, the software company’s progressive jackpot network has now paid over €26 million.

“We are thrilled to see a player win such a life-changing sum of money, especially this close to Christmas and while playing one of our slots games on mobile,” said Fred Elmqvist, Yggdrasil CEO.

“Joker Millions is our first progressive slot and it is beloved by both operators and players.

“With more operators continuing to join the Yggdrasil network, the jackpot will be building up again quickly.”
