Talk about doubling your pleasure.
Two Michigan players struck it big with BetMGM Casino, each landing six-figure progressive jackpots in just two days and collectively winning over $1.2 million.
The wins continue the hot streak the online casino experienced at the end of 2024. Things appear to be picking up in 2025 where they left off at the end of December.

BetMGM's Growing Casino Jackpot Success
BetMGM's impressive payout record continues with $128.5 million in progressive jackpots awarded in 2024 alone. Michigan players claimed the largest share—$42.7 million—demonstrating their success in the online gaming landscape.
Angus Nisbet, VP of Gaming at BetMGM, was not afraid to hide his feelings over these wins. “Two six-figure jackpots in two days truly showcase the power of our progressive jackpot network,” Nisbet stated. “BetMGM awarded more jackpot progressive payouts to Michigan players than any other market in 2024, and this year is clearly starting strong for Michiganders as well.”
Last year, BetMGM Casino also added beloved game shows "The Price is Right" and "Family Feud" to its list of offerings.
Exclusive Rewards Beyond Financial Wins
Beyond their significant cash prizes, both Michigan winners also qualified for BetMGM’s unique jackpot program. This includes an exclusive three-day, two-night stay at MGM Grand Detroit featuring a range of luxurious experiences, such as a gourmet dinner, a spa day, or an exclusive sportsbook experience.
These extras offer winners more than just financial rewards, elevating their jackpot experience to unforgettable levels. It’s similar to the experience a lucky BetMGM Casino player from New Jersey won when he hit for more than $894,000 on the MGM Grand Millions game.
Record-Breaking Year for BetMGM
BetMGM’s record-breaking year extended beyond Michigan.
The company operates in five markets, with a standout $6.5 million jackpot awarded in New Jersey—the largest in the state's legalized iGaming history. In West Virginia, another remarkable win saw a player take home $894,308, marking BetMGM’s largest jackpot in that market.
As BetMGM continues to expand, players across different states eagerly anticipate their chance to become the next big winner.
Currently, legal online gambling is available in Connecticut, Delaware, Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.
