A table games player at Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City, New Jersey, hit the Bonus Spin Xtreme progressive jackpot of $1.2 million in early May.
The lucky player playing a linked Bonus Spin Xtreme table game made a $5 side bet and won the hot seat to trigger the Bonus Spin Xtreme wheel. From there, the outer wheel spun and landed on the Triple Diamond top progressive jackpot, totaling $1,255,697. The jackpot is shared between Borgata’s 16 linked Bonus Spin Xtreme tables, including AGS’ Bonus Spin Xtreme for Blackjack, Baccarat, and Criss Cross Poker®.
“We are thrilled to see the ongoing success of AGS’ Bonus Spin Xtreme table game multilink progressive at Borgata,” says James Bruno, Vice President of Casino Operations for Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa. “In the past twelve months, Double Diamond Jackpots have paid over $315K, which is in addition to the $1.2 million top award payout we saw at Borgata. We greatly value our partnership with AGS and look forward to an exciting future.”
This win marks Borgata’s second Triple Diamond jackpot in less than a year–the first was $1.5 million and the highest progressive payout in AGS’ history to date. In addition to over $300,000 paid in Double Diamond jackpot wins, the second-highest progressive tier on the Bonus Spin Xtreme wheel, Borgata has awarded over $3 million in Bonus Spin Xtreme jackpots in less than a year.
