The news of an exciting occurrence at an online casino broke over the weekend when a player at an online casino hit the huge progressive jackpot while playing Blackjack.

The lucky winner was using the Vegas Technology network of casinos found on the internet.

Progressive Blackjack games are usually won by paying out in intervals, not by hitting the big jackpot.

That makes this a rare and rewarding experience for the winner. As one of the more popular games at Golden Casino, Progressive Blackjack is a thrilling way to play this favorite table game.

“I play the Progressive Blackjack game a couple of times a week,” Mickey Brantley, an online player of the game said. “I like blackjack, and the chance to hit a big jackpot while playing has always been exciting for me.”

Early Sunday morning the progressive jackpot hit and made one lucky player very happy. This was the first time ever that this jackpot has been hit. The customer received a massive $259,342 payday for hitting the jackpot.

Golden Casino also offers another card game that has a progressive jackpot. Island Stud Poker’s progressive jackpot has been hit only once also. Over six months ago the tropical themed game paid out nearly $70,000 and the game now has a jackpot of over $80k.
