Dennis M. of Athens, AL was visiting L'Auberge Casino Resort in Lake Charles with his girlfriend when his luck hit a turn for the best and he won his $1.5 million jackpot. A fan of the Wheel of Fortune slot series, when Dennis won his prize, he thought to himself "it's about time."
Luck followed a New Hampshire resident to Connecticut when an anonymous slot player became the lucky winner of a more than $1.1 million jackpot at Mohegan Sun's "Mohegan Sky" casino.
Another anonymous new millionaire, who has been awarded with $3.9 million at Atlantis Casino Resort Spa, plans to pay off bills and then travel to Ireland, Hawaii, and to take an Alaskan cruise.
IGT launched the MegaJackpots® progressive product line in 1986 and has since produced thousands of winners with jackpots ranging from $1 million to the world-record slot jackpot of more than $39 million.
MegaJackpots games, including Wheel of Fortune slots, are created by IGT, a leader in the design, development and manufacture of gaming machines and systems products in casinos worldwide.
