Talk about an outstanding investment. With some loose change in his pocket, a man made a bet of just 40 cents and walked away with more than $500,000.
That's exactly what happened to one lucky BetMGM Casino player in West Virginia.
With just a single spin on the Bison Fury game, he hit an astounding $532,969 jackpot.
On top of that, Jonathan Hamrick will get an unforgettable VIP experience at the luxurious ARIA Resort & Casino in Las Vegas.
He also took center stage at a special check presentation at ARIA Resort & Casino.
Quite an exciting night for Jonathan and his family.

Bison Fury Provided Jonathan’s Winning Adventure
Bison Fury is the game responsible for Jonathan's life-changing win. This five-reel slot immerses players in an American wilderness theme.
There are over 1,000 possible ways to win in the base game, plus the chance to earn free spin opportunities triggered by Scattered Sunset symbols.
BetMGM Casino offers more than 2,800 games across North America. You can find BetMGM Casino in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, and Ontario, Canada.
BetMGM’s Record-Breaking Year
Jonathan’s win isn’t the only excitement BetMGM players have recently experienced. The past 10 months have been remarkable for jackpots. In February, one lucky player in New Jersey hit a $4 million progressive jackpot, setting an operator record.
Then, in August, history was made when a player won a staggering $6.5 million on a $200 bet playing Fruit Blaster. It’s the largest jackpot ever recorded in the legal online casino industry.
The Big One is BetMGM’s progressive jackpot pool of in-house-produced games by Entain. The jackpot resets at $1 million when there’s a winner and builds over time.
BetMGM is building off the big year of payouts it had in 2023 when its casino platforms awarded more than $138 million in progressive jackpot payouts in, which was a 32% year-over-year increase. But numbers don’t lie, and it appears there’s a chance that 2024 may be even bigger.
You truly never know when your next spin could change your life forever. Jonathan found that out, and all it took was 40 cents.
