On Friday, April 8, a Spin Palace Casino player hit the Mega Moolah jackpot, taking home an astonishing €6,905,670.81. As with all Microgaming's progressive wins, the windfall will be paid out to the player in a lump sum.

"It is always an incredible feeling to have one of our players become an instant millionaire," said a Spin Palace spokesperson. "On behalf of everyone at Spin Palace, a massive congratulations to our winning player on their near €7 million fortune."

"It's not long since we were celebrating our historic and record-breaking win," said Microgaming Head of Casino John Quinn. "To be able to crown another millionaire so soon after is brilliant - congratulations to the lucky Spin Palace player."
