Lucky Friday the 13th Jackpot Win on HollywoodCasino.com

September 19, 2019

GRANTVILLE, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Sep. 19, 2019-- HollywoodCasino.com, the online gaming platform for Penn National Gaming, Inc. (PENN: Nasdaq) (“Penn National” or the “Company”), is celebrating the first Divine Fortune Mega Jackpot after a player hit a hefty $40,511.69 jackpot this past weekend.

A woman from Carlisle, PA won the Mega Jackpot from a desktop computer during the evening of Friday the 13th. She had been playing Divine Fortune for less than an hour and won the jackpot on a bet that was a little less than half of the game’s maximum bet amount.

The lucky Friday the 13th jackpot win has sparked plenty of excitement at HollywoodCasino.com. “Our goal is to create the best online casino experience,” says Rich Criado, General Manager of iCasino for Penn National. “The ability to hit a jackpot of this size is exhilarating for our players. We’re thrilled to be able to offer these big win opportunities to Pennsylvania players.”

Divine Fortune’s Mega Jackpot increases each time any player places a bet, and the jackpot steadily grows higher until someone wins. After a win, the jackpot resets and starts climbing again with every wager. The current Mega Jackpot value is displayed at the top of the game.

The Divine Fortune Mega Jackpot has already grown to more than $22,500 since Friday’s win. In addition to the growing Mega Jackpot, Divine Fortune offers a Minor Jackpot that pays 20X the player’s bet, and a Major Jackpot which pays 100X the player’s bet. Players can improve their chances of winning the Mega Jackpot by placing higher bets, though the Mega Jackpot can be won at any bet amount.

There’s no upper limit to Divine Fortune’s Mega Jackpot, so the jackpot amount continues to grow with each spin until someone wins. Divine Fortune is currently the only game in Pennsylvania with this type of jackpot.
