Mega Fortune slot provided a record progressive win of €11.7 million (video)

A very lucky Norwegian member of Betsson has won a record EUR11.7 million progressive jackpot, playing Mega Fortune slot.

NetEnt’s Mega Fortune slot progressive jackpot has been building up for some quite time now. And finally a member of Betsson from Norway has hit the magic button and took home €11.7 million.

Norwegian media identify the lucky winner as a 20-something student from Hordaland, who didn’t want to go to bet immediately after returning from a night out. Instead he logged onto Betsson website and found 10 free spins on Mega Fortune slot in his account, which helped him win 46 Norwegian kronor.

He then used the winnings to continue playing on the slot for another 11 rounds until hitting the whopping progressive jackpot on just €0.50 bet, which will definitely change his life. The lucky winner told Betsson management: "This is unbelievable, I didn’t believe it and had to call my brother and a few friends. It hasn’t really sunk in yet.”

He went on to say: “I couldn’t sleep until 6 am due to the shock! I woke up at 7.00 am again. It was just impossible to sleep, and I am shaking and sweating. I haven’t thought about what to do with the winnings. I need to try and calm down before even thinking of what I do with the money!"

I usually play in Betsson’s sportsbook, but I saw the huge sum of the jackpot and thought “Yeah! Let’s give the free spins a shoot and see what happens”. It was a shocking experience when Euro 11.7 million dropped before my eyes”, he added.

He has already asked for and will definitely receive expert financial advice from professional independent consultant company provided by Betsson.
