US – Two New Jersey players win millions with DraftKings Casino

By - 20 June 2023

Last week, two lucky DraftKings Casino customers in New Jersey won million-dollar jackpots in 24 hours. On Tuesday night, one customer took home the largest progressive jackpot in the company’s history, $3.29m while placing a $0.10 bet on Zeus: Ancient Fortunes. This record-breaking jackpot beats the previous record set in April 2023, with a customer winning $1.97m, while placing a $0.10 bet on Extra Chilli Megaways.

Then on Wednesday afternoon, one lucky customer made a $0.10 bet on 12 Western Horseshoes, winning $1.44 million, bringing DraftKings Casino’s total progressive jackpots payouts in New Jersey to $13.49 million since the product launched. Both wins come on the heels of the company announcing it had achieved No. 1 GGR iGaming share in the United States during the first quarter of 2023.

“Crowning two millionaires in 24 hours was a monumental week for DraftKings Casino,” said Jason March, VP of iGaming Marketing & Operations. “The ability to give our customers the chance to win a big progressive jackpot on over 100 games makes me so proud of our product.”

In addition to DraftKings’ progressive jackpots, the company recently launched DraftKings Auto American Live Roulette.

Similar to stadium roulette found at land-based casinos, DraftKings Auto American Live Roulette features an auto roulette wheel that runs 24/7 with a backup wheel available, allowing for continuous action. While DraftKings Auto American Live Roulette is only available to eligible DraftKings Casino customers in New Jersey, DraftKings expects to expand this product and additional live dealer offerings into other jurisdictions where DraftKings Casino is available.

“We are very pleased to announce the launch of our very own live dealer studio, featuring Auto American Live Roulette,” said March. “Creating proprietary DraftKings Casino games has always been a core part of our strategy, and exclusive live casino games in this category will expand our reach even further.”

Launched in 2018, DraftKings Casino is live in five states, representing approximately 11% of the U.S. population.
