What a way to start a new month.

One lucky Michigander turned a dime into a jackpot win of over $360,000, and just in time for the holidays.

The unidentified person was playing Lucky Money Tree over the weekend, in the Michigan DraftKings Casino, when they hit for $363,022.00 on a bet of only $0.10 cents.

The win was so significant, DraftKings posted about it on its X account.

The win doesn’t top the $907,000 someone took home on a $0.10 cent Lucky Money Tree bet in February, but still a great win, nonetheless.

DraftKings Casino’s record-setting jackpot in Michigan is going where no online win has ever gone before.

As of October 18, it had climbed to almost $6.5 million, making it the biggest in U.S. online casino history.

This now surpasses the jackpot that held the old record up until August.

DraftKings Casino offers a variety of casino games you can enjoy right from your phone or desktop.

To have a chance to win the jackpot, players in Michigan can risk as little as $0.20 in the online casino on one of 26 different games, including popular ones like DraftKings Rocket, DraftKings Fire Buffalo, and DraftKings Blackjack.

What is a Progressive Jackpot?

A progressive jackpot is a prize that keeps growing as players add to it, often starting with contributions as small as $0.10 from each player.

When you play games with progressive jackpots online, you can see the prize increase on the jackpot meter, which updates in real-time to show the current jackpot amount. To participate, players place a separate bet that goes into the jackpot pool, so the regular game payouts aren't affected.

Progressive jackpots are available in many games, such as slots, blackjack, and roulette, and they grow each time someone makes a wager. A small part of each bet adds to the jackpot.
