DraftKings and BetMGM have been competing to be the operator with the largest online casino jackpot paid, with the former now taking the lead

DraftKings turned the dreams of one American true on Thanksgiving, after the company awarded a $22.4 million jackpot won off a single $0.20 wager, for what is currently the largest single-sum won from any online casino in the United States.

The win occurred on Wednesday morning and has set a new record for the highest amount paid by an iGaming operator, with the previous record set earlier this year when another person won $9.28 million. The current win more than doubles the previous tally. Commenting on the win, DraftKings executive VP and general manager of iGaming, Christian Bogstrand said: “Setting another record for the largest US online casino jackpot is a major moment – and it speaks to the incredible experiences we’re creating for our customers.

Topping $22 million is a milestone we’re proud of, and it reinforces our commitment to delivering a best-in-class gaming experience. Congrats to the winner!”

The win was scored at the Huff N’ Even More Puff game.
