This marks the second Megabucks jackpot that IGT awarded in February, following the $5,026,176 payout earlier that month.
This jackpot continues IGT Megabucks' mega-payout history, now totaling more than $1 billion since its inception in 1986. The world record in slot jackpots was won on IGT Megabucks and paid out $39 million in March 2003.
