MI DraftKings Casino Player Hits Largest Ever U.S. Online Casino Jackpot

A Michigan DraftKings Casino player hit the largest U.S. online casino jackpot in history Wednesday.

The Michigan player won more than $22.4 million on a 20-cent bet on the game Huff N' Even More Puff, according to DraftKings.

The lucky winner wasn't identified, nor was the payout protocol and how much of those winnings will be earmarked for state and federal tax withholdings.

The jackpot eclipses the previous record of $9.28 million, which was also won by a Michigan player in February, according to DraftKings.

"Setting another record for the largest U.S. online casino jackpot is a major moment — and it speaks to the incredible experiences we’re creating for our customers," said Christian Bogstrand, Executive Vice President and General Manager of iGaming, DraftKings. "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!"
