Last Saturday with the pay-out of the Mega Moolah progressive jackpot one of the most awaited events in the history of online gambling has taken place. No less than $6.3 Million was dished out at once to one single player.

Microgaming´s Pride and Joy
The Mega Moolah online slot is probably the best-known game in the multitude of available games in all online casinos. It´s progressive jackpot is never filled with less than $1 Million, and not seldom it mounts up to 4 or 5 times this amount. Recently Microgaming even launched a new version of this highly successful slot machine, called the Mega Moolah Summertime.

And the Winner is…
As the record win took place only a few days ago, unfortunately no details have been made available yet. However, it must be a person from outside the U.S. as Microgaming casinos still don´t allow American gambling aficionados. 

American Gambling Legislation
There are some signs pointing in the right direction for the U.S. online gambling community. However, while Barney Frank is working hard to make the UIGEA become a thing of the past reality is stubborn.

Some other states don't seem to bother at all looking at the current developments in the United States as a whole. Minnesota for example likes to focus on implementing additional anti-gambling measures like blocking gambling websites at random, instead of adhering a less stringent gambling policy.
