We all know online slots can be hugely lucrative. Whether it’s a fixed jackpot, a progressive payout, or even a juicy bonus, virtual spinners offer the best payouts around.

However, as interesting, impressive, and intriguing as these potential wins are, it almost seems as though they’re too good to be true. Yes, we know they’re there and, yes, each online slot has a fixed return rate (RTP). But it’s not often you hear about someone rolling in a big win.

Well, now you don’t have to wonder anymore because someone has rolled in the big one over at Golden Nugget. Playing the ever-popular Divine Fortune progressive jackpot game, a North Jersey resident named Amy rolled in a $240,026 win.

For those that haven’t heard of or seen Divine Fortune before, it’s a NetEnt creation. Right off the bat, you know that means you’re getting high-quality graphics, immersive bonus rounds, and generous payouts.

A world of heavenly payouts

In this particular game, you’ll be shot into the heavens where you’ll be able to roam among the gods and goddesses of Ancient Greece.

To set mythological figures such as Medusa in motion, a 10-cent bet will move the five reels and 20 paylines. Once you’re off and running, the combination of fixed payouts, free spins and wild on wild features all contribute to a 96.59 percent.

All that said, the major selling point of Divine Fortune is its progressive jackpots. Yes, that’s right: This game has more than one progressive payout.

By rolling in three or more golden bonus symbols (golden shields), you’ll be taken to a bonus game where you’ll receive three free spins. To help you bank some serious wins, scatters are also in play during this round. In this first instance, each time you roll in a bonus symbol, you’ll win up to 200X your stake.

However, if you start filling entire rows with golden shields, you’ll unlock one of the following:

• Minor Jackpot – fill one row with bonus symbols
• Major Jackpot – fill two rows with bonus symbols
• Mega Jackpot – fill all three rows with bonus symbols

A trio of big wins

If you hit the minor, you can expect a payout in the hundreds, while the major is worth thousands. And if you’re lucky enough to fill the screen with gold symbols, you’ll hit the mega jackpot.

Naturally, because this is a progressive payout, you can never be certain how much you’re going to win. From past experience, we know that $100,000 is the least you can expect.

For Amy, the jackpot was a lot more lucrative. During her fateful session, she set the bet counter to $2 and, as we’ve described, lit up the screen with golden shields. What’s even more impressive about Amy’s win is that it was only her 10th day as a Golden Nugget player.

Clearly, fate was on her side because Golden Nugget NJ has more than 500 games to choose from, including 350 mobile options. Of course, with the $500,000 Annual Wagering Race giving everyone a reason to ante-up and play for a shot at some serious bonus payouts, it’s hardly surprising someone hit the big one.
