Casino News: Treasure Nile, Oliver C, Record Jackpot, Microgaming

August 8, 2001.

Treasure Nile Sets New Payout World Record Just 3 Weeks After Launch.

treasurenile Software Engineer, Oliver C, has won the biggest ever online casino jackpot of $389,843.85 on the new Microgaming's Treasure Nile Progressive jackpot game.

Launched just three weeks ago, Treasure Nile, the Internet's first 5-reel 9-line progressive slot, has paid out the biggest progressive jackpot ever won online. Software Engineer Olivier C. won the unprecedented $389,843.85 jackpot while playing the game at Lucky Nugget Casino on August 4th.

"I suppose I am one of the luckiest guys in the world, it's a very good feeling!" enthused Olivier. "I plan on investing some of the money to give me some security, as well as giving some to family. I will also buy a dark blue Audi!"

This record-breaking jackpot is the third huge jackpot paid out since the game's launch only last month. Suzanne G. won $104,989.56 at Lucky Nugget Casino on July 16th and Linda W. won $150,391.60 at The River Belle on July 23rd. Already $685,424.39 has been paid out by Treasure Nile in jackpot payouts to date, although it still has a long way to go to catch up with the jackpot payout totals on the other six progressive games in the Jackpot Madness network. The network boasts total jackpot payouts of over $37 million, with $1,281,445.26 paid out on its flagship Cash Splash slot machine game last month alone.

"Watching the jackpot counter whiz past the $350,000 was very exciting. To have a successful game not only must it have large jackpots but also it must pay out regularly," said Marilyn Glazier, Director of Public Relations for Jackpot Madness.

Treasure Nile, an Egyptian-themed progressive, is the newest addition to the Jackpot Madness family. Featuring nine lines and 5 reels, the unprecedented progressive is already popular among online gaming enthusiasts as witnessed by the rapidly escalating jackpot totals. Treasure Nile accumulates deposits from players on the Treasure Nile slots at all participating casinos, creating constant, unmatched jackpots. Powered by Microgaming's trusted software, Treasure Nile is also backed by PlayCheck which enables players to obtain a complete history of their game play for up to 7 days after they have finished playing.
