Finally, after all the anticipation of the Mega Moolah jackpot prize being won, it has now been confirmed that on the 30th January 2019, one Lucky Canadian Player (we think!) has won.

Not Record Breaking

Unfortunately, the jackpot was not won in either £ or €, it didn’t tip the record breaking status we saw back in September last year when one lucky player scooped €18.9M.Although the Mega Moolah Jackpot did not reach a Record Breaking status, this is the first time in the games history it has reached such a colossal amount of over €20M, and is the first €20M jackpot to be won in any country.Details are very sketchy at this point with the winner still deciding whether to go public. The player claimed the 80 Chances To Be A Millionaire offer on the game and the jackpot triggered winning CA$20.059.287,27  which equates to around £11.4M. Checking the exchange rate we can see the winner probably played in Canadian Dollars.I’m sure in the coming days more information will emerge about the lucky player. We wish you all the best and enjoy your jackpot win!
