Slots Prize Hits New High

It is expected that one lucky slots player will soon win the $2 million (£1.01 million) jackpot at 888.com's Millionaire Genie game.

Online slots players who want to play for big money may be tempted by the prize on offer at 888.com's Millionaire Genie classic slots game.

The company has announced that the jackpot on the game has now reached $2 million (£1.01 million) – the highest the gambling firm has ever experienced for this type of casino game.

Costing only $3 to place a bet, playing slots at 888.com could be the best financial decision ever made by one lucky individual.

According to 888.com, the "unprecedented" prize will be won by one internet gambler in the near future.

The same company announced last month that it had teamed up with former Australia cricketer Shane Warne to provide the "thrill of a lifetime" for one of its poker fans.

Poker player Nathan Perry was the lucky individual who won the company's prize – a game of poker with Warne, while being served pizza and beer by waitresses.
