Progressive Jackpot Big Winner: £196k winner from £1 stake

Betfred are proud to announce that one lucky punter has won £196,833.17 from a £1 stake on progressive jackpot Reel King Mega (Red Tiger). The lucky player scooped this incredible win on Saturday night, May 17, to mark a quite incredible weekend. 

So how did this lucky punter land such a win with Betfred? Well, this was one of our progressive jackpots, which means your potential win increases every time the game is played and the jackpot isn’t won. 

When the prize is eventually won, the jackpot resets to a fixed figure and starts to increase again. These prizes can increase for months and even years and can reach some astonishing figures.

For example, at the time of writing, the progressive jackpot on Mega Moolah right now is just over £10.7m. You can follow our progressive Jackpot Tracker here and get yourselves in the running to win these simply gargantuan jackpot prizes. 

As you would expect, progressive jackpot slots like this one are popular, as there is a chance to become a millionaire for a relatively small stake. The biggest progressive win ever seen in the UK was back in 2018 for £18.9m on the Mega Moolah slot.

Meanwhile, the highest win on Betfred remains £5.4m on King Kong Cashpots in January 2023 but if somebody wins the Mega Moolah jackpot - that record will be obliterated as potentially double that amount of money will be won by a fortunate player. 

The £196,833.17 that our punter won last night looks relatively modest in comparison to those figures, but from a £1 stake you can’t complain with that astonishing return. Betfred has a wide range of slots games for you to play at any time during the week, so check them out at your leisure.
