The casino clarified that the fortunate winner had been playing the Hollywood Casino Neon Vault game. The spin triggered the DropZone progressive jackpot, which Ontarian players can play for by opting in to the DropZone promotion.

If they do, each of their wagers is increased by CAD 0.10. However, activating the feature means that they can win the DropZone jackpot while playing any of theScore Casino’s slots.

In the meantime, theScore Casino, formerly the online gaming division of the sports channel of the same name, is preparing to launch in Alberta.
