There's nothing Online Casino Suite likes to report on more than big winners. In fact, the last news article we published was about a big slot jackpot win at the Rival Gaming network of online casinos, which are one of the top US-facing gaming networks right now. Turning our attention to the world's epicenter of online gambling regulation - Great Britain - there are even more big winnings to report on. And quite frankly, much of it has been taking place at the new and improved Will Hill Online Casino.

Certainly one of the top UK Casinos, Will Hill management has reported that a whopping £750,000 has been won by players over the last thirty days just within the Vegas section of their growing network of online betting portals, which now include bingo, poker, lotteries, live casino games, skill gaming, and of course, sports betting.  Making up this large sum were jackpots ranging from £20,000 to a whopping £188,000, with one player bagging over £260,000 just for himself.

Expectedly, all of the large winning sums were hit on progressive jackpot games, which is quintessential Vegas style casino gambling - something which Will Hill knows a great deal about. What was surprising for Will Hill's online management team, however, was just how much player's would rack in during the last thirty days. July has truly been a record-setting month for payouts. Since the beginning of 2009, the Vegas portal of Will Hill paid out nearly half a million pounds in progressive jackpots. Exceeding this amount in a single month went beyond everybody's expectations, to say the least.

A great deal of all these winnings should largely be attributed to the fact that Will Hill moved over to Playtech Software and adopted their correspondingly giant progressive jackpot network. Considering Will Hill's large pool of players to begin with, it didn't take long for the jackpots to start pouring in. And July has thus been the pinnacle of this change.

In particular, it was the "Pharaoh's Treasure" slot that paid out the most, including the aforementioned jackpot of £188,000. As of now, "Pharaoh's Treasure" has built up past £90,000 already. Other casino games that paid out hefty jackpots were "Go For Gold" (£183,685), and "Alice's Wonderland" (£28,749), which currently stands at over £40,000. Two more progressive jackpots worth noting are "Casino Poker" at over £170,000 and "Gin Joint", which is steadily building past £30,000.
