According to IGT’s announcement, its Wheel of Fortune and Powerbucks slot games minted four new millionaires in the final month of 2024, providing lucky players with more reasons to celebrate.

On December 6, a fortunate Wheel of Fortune slots player scooped up a $1,494,585 prize. According to IGT, the player in question was playing Wheel of Fortune Double 3x 4x 5x Pay at Binion’s Gambling Hall & Hotel in Las Vegas, Nevada.
On December 17, a second player in Nevada, this time at The Venetian Resort Las Vegas, secured a similar seven-figure prize. IGT elaborated that the victor won some $1,426,361 from Wheel of Fortune Diamond Spins 2x Wilds.
Two days later, a third Wheel of Fortune jackpot made its way to a lucky player. On December 17, a gambler at Tamarack Casino in Reno, Nevada, won a life-changing $1,007,502 prize from Wheel of Fortune Gold Spin Triple Red Hot 7s.
Last but not least, an online Powerbucks player from Quebec, Canada, secured a CAD 2,752,530 jackpot. The company pointed out that the player in question was playing IGT’s Wheel of Fortune Ruby Riches title. I also added that this is the largest Powerbucks jackpot it has awarded to date.
IGT Has Minted over a Thousand Millionaires
IGT’s Wheel of Fortune slot titles have minted more than 1,200 millionaires since their launch. The company launched the slot series in 1996 and has so far awarded a staggering $3.6 billion in jackpots to lucky players. IGT Powerbucks slots, on the other hand, have paid 61 jackpots of over a million Canadian dollars since their launch in the country in 2016.
These games, however, are only scratching the surface of IGT’s rich portfolio of games. The company’s robust portfolio includes not only slots but also lottery, betting, and digital products. The company leverages its rich library of innovative games to deliver unrivaled engagement to its clients’ players.
IGT’s products are available in some 100+ markets and counting.
Canadian Lottery Winner Gets to Keep Jackpot
Speaking of jackpots, a lottery winner from Canada just secured a major legal victory that will allow him to keep his full prize. The man was a part of an unofficial lottery pool and, when he won, his colleagues initiated a lawsuit demanding a share of the prize.
However, the winning ticket was actually purchased with the winner’s own money. Whereas the lottery pool bought approximately one ticket every month, the winner was an avid player who spent hundreds of dollars on tickets every month.
