One of Microgaming
software's most popular online video slots and
progressive jackpots, Mega Moolah, is about to strike
again. Lurking about in the background like a hungry
animal, or rather, a massive volcano ready to blow, Mega
Moolah has caught the attention of the online gambling
community at large, and is the object of concern on many
player boards and gaming news sites and portals.
Now worth over $3.5
million, which is a notch up from the average jackpot
win of $2.7 million, Mega Moolah could very well be home
to the next online gambling millionaire. The only
question is which
Microgaming online casino will host the winning reel
combo on this wildly popular wide area progressive
jackpot game. And I suppose there's another question
that remains to be unanswered: How large will Mega
Moolah get?
Still a hop, skip
and a jump away from the record $5,556,735 won last
April, the current jackpot could become the next
internet record if it holds out a little longer. There's
something to be said for the exponential nature of
increasingly large progressive jackpots - Not only do
progressive jackpots pull in revenue from multiple
online casinos at once, after reaching a newsworthy
value, they tend to create buzz amongst players and pull
in even more money. Therefore, it's highly probably that
if Mega Moolah continues to hold out, the jackpot may
pass up current record sum before you know it.
Microgaming has
certainly been in the news this week. In addition to a
new game release starting off the month of August, two
other Microgaming progressive jackpots have accumulated
sizable sums, including the progressive Roulette game
(now worth nearly $900,000), the ever-so-popular Major
Millions (now worth approximately $938,000) and King
Cashalot (now worth well over one-half million).
