New Jersey Online Slots Player Wins Over $500K On One Spin On DraftKings

In what must’ve been even more exciting than Pat Sajak’s daily recital of “Oh, Vanna!,” a New Jersey online casino player just took down a massive jackpot on DraftKings Casino NJ.

The player won $553,534.28 on a spin of MegaJackpots Wheel of Fortune On Air on Sunday, DraftKings announced in a press release.

The game sort of has the look and feel of the classic game show, with the symbols on the slot looking a little like the puzzle board and with the famed wheel off to the left. Players have a chance to spin the wheel to potentially trigger the MegaJackpots bonus.

For a chance at the big bucks — or to metaphorically “solve the puzzle” — players (contestants?) need to get three bonus symbols on a spin of the slot, which then allows a chance to spin the wheel.

“We are providing DraftKings Casino customers with an exciting variety of iGaming entertainment and prizes that is unlike any other in the industry,” Signe Yama, DraftKings vice president of product operations, said in the release. “It’s thrilling to see our customers win big like the lucky individual who won Sunday’s large jackpot.” 

DraftKings also offers sports betting in New Jersey in addition to its online casino.
