Ontario Player Hits Record $1.8M Jackpot on a $1.10 Spin at theScore Casino
A player in Ontario has just landed the biggest jackpot in the history of theScore Casino. The win, worth over CAD$1.8 million, came from a single spin costing just over a dollar. This record-breaking payout highlights the growing popularity of the platform in Canada.
The lucky gambler was playing Hollywood Casino Neon Vault, a game exclusive to theScore Casino. Their CAD$1.10 (USD$0.81) spin triggered the DropZone progressive jackpot, netting them CAD$1,869,841 (USD$1,373,950). The jackpot system takes an extra CAD$0.10 from every wager on slots games to fund the prize pool.
TheScore Casino is currently only available in Ontario but plans to expand into Alberta in July. Originally, theScore began as a Canadian sports cable channel in 1997 before evolving into a digital betting platform. In 2019, it launched theScore Bet, the first mobile sportsbook in the US, in partnership with Monmouth Park Racetrack. Two years later, the company was acquired by Penn Entertainment. Players in Ontario must opt into the DropZone promotion to qualify for the progressive jackpot. The latest win now stands as the largest in the casino’s history.
This record-breaking payout comes as theScore Casino prepares to enter Alberta’s market next month. The platform’s expansion follows its success in Ontario, where its progressive jackpot system continues to attract players. The win also marks a significant milestone for the company since its acquisition by Penn Entertainment.
