Two Michiganders struck gold at BetMGM Casino in the span of 48 hours last week, taking home $1.2 million in progressive jackpot prizes between themselves.
The winning streak began on February 19, when one lucky player landed a life-changing $577,164 progressive jackpot on MGM Grand Millions, all from a mere $5 spin.
Just one day later, on February 20, another player’s life was changed forever with a $654,175 win on MegaJackpots Fortune Coin, courtesy of a $60 spin.
But the excitement didn’t let up as each winner will enjoy a luxurious 3-day, 2-night getaway at the MGM Grand Detroit. Their stay will include a dinner and a spa day to unwind. Or, for the sports enthusiasts, an exclusive experience at the sportsbook, where they can live like VIPs.

All about MGM Grand Millions and MegaJackpots Fortune Coin
For BetMGM Casino players who would like to now spin for big wins with the two online slot games, here’s what you need to know:
MGM Grand Millions, developed in-house by Entain, is a five-reel “All Ways” slot that boasts 243 possible winning combinations in its base game. But what really sets this game apart is its free spins mode, which expands the reels to create 1,024 ways to win.
Complementing the MGM Grand Millions is the Asian-inspired MegaJackpots Fortune Coin by IGT. Like MGM Grand Millions, it has 243 paylines, but also boasts wild symbols, bonus rounds, and the chance to trigger the Mega Jackpot, like one lucky player so recently did.
BetMGM’s progressive jackpot network is on a roll
In a BetMGM press release, Angus Nisbet, Vice President of Gaming at BetMGM, highlighted the significance of the recent jackpot wins, saying:
“Two six-figure jackpots in two days truly showcase the power of our progressive jackpot network. 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.”
In 2024, BetMGM awarded $128.5 million in progressive jackpot payouts to online casino players. Michigan players took home the largest share, with a total of $42.7 million in jackpot prize money.
Meanwhile, on August 19, a BetMGM online casino player in New Jersey hit a $6.4 million jackpot, setting a new record for the topped that in February.
With a good start, judging from the February win, there are still a ton of opportunities for BetMGM to crown more millionaires, with a chance of making history again.
