Biggest Jackpots in January 2012

Posted on January 23rd, 2012 in Jackpots

Every month we look at the biggest online pokie jackpots and this month there is one huge jackpot at almost $7,000,000 and several other jackpots that are over or nearing $1,000,000. As usual it’s the progressive games that have the biggest jackpots and it’s worth noting that all wins are paid out in one payment. On to the jackpots …

Beach Life  : $6,950,733

The Beach Life progressive pokie found at Playtech casinos has a hit a new record of over $6,950,733. The previous record for Beach Life was $4,248,572 which was hit in early 2010. Since then it the jackpot has gone off four times with the biggest win being $2,786,947.

Beach Life is a 20 line game with a second screen bonus. To win the progressive jackpot you have to line up five of the wild Sun symbols on the 20th line. To have a shot at winning the main jackpot you have to play $10 per spin which means that the game is only really for players with a good size bankroll that are comfortable betting $10 per spin. Still the $7,000,000 jackpot would be a great return even with a $10 bet level.

Other Jackpots Worth a Look

While the Beach Life jackpot clearly stands out there are several other progressive pokies that have jackpots over or close to $1,000,000.

Mega Moolah : $1,066,225

The Mega Moolah progressive was hit last month for $1,965,938 but as the jackpot resets to $1,000,000 it always has a big jackpot. You can win the $1,000,000+ jackpot with bets as low as 50 cents per spin!

Major Millions : $977,430

A lucky player won $1,788,543 on the 5th of January. But instead of going back to the $250,000 starting level the jackpot is still almost a million. Max bet is $3 per spin.
