The largest jackpot in U.S. online casino history is waiting to be won at DraftKings. The current Michigan casino jackpot now stands at $6.5 million.
The jackpot can be won for as little as 20 cents, from a total of 26 eligible online games. The games include titles such as DraftKings Rocket, DraftKings Fire Buffalo and DraftKings Blackjack, all of which are available at the Michigan online casino.
“A jackpot in Michigan just surpassed $6.46 million, making it the LARGEST in online casino history!” DraftKings said, posting on X on Friday.
