A Michigan resident has made history by winning the largest online casino jackpot ever recorded in the United States, $9.28 million, while playing DraftKings Casino.

The record-breaking jackpot hit on Wednesday after a lucky player placed a $0.20 side bet on the Irish Pot Luck slot game.

The progressive jackpot had been growing for over a year, beginning at $1 million in February 2024, before finally reaching its record-breaking total, according to a news release.

This latest win surpasses the previous U.S. online casino jackpot record of $6.45 million, which was claimed in New Jersey in August 2024.
