It’s every gambler’s dream to hit a life-changing jackpot one day. For a slot player in Pennsylvania that dream recently came true.
Julie M. — full name undisclosed — hit the jackpot of a lifetime on the Divine Fortune slot machine on the PokerStars PA online casino. How much did the lucky gambler win? A whopping $631,436.86 on a $60 spin.
Jackpot Winner Details
PokerStars PA provided us with some info on the winner and how she hit the jackpot. Back in February, we reported that the Divine Fortune slot machine jackpot hit multiple times totaling nearly $1 million, including a massive $729,000 score.
Earlier this month, another huge jackpot cracked on the same machine. Julie M, who only wants to be identified by her first name and last initial, had run into a bit of bad luck before the dream score.
According to PokerStars, using screen name “juliesbiron,” she first made a $1,000 deposit on November 29, 2022 and then another $1,500 on June 1, 2023. She apparently hadn’t played any casino games on PokerStars in between those two deposits.
Unfortunately, for Julie, she had another rough session betting $60 per hand on the Divine Fortune slots. So, she made another $1,500 deposit on the same day (June 1, 2023) and gave it another shot. It’s a good thing she did because luck was about to come her way.
On the 70th hand, still betting $60 per spin, about 20 minutes into the session, she hit the jackpot and the rest is history. Julie received more than $630,000 all for playing what appears to be her favorite slot machine on the PokerStars PA online casino.
Congratulations to the lucky winner.
Nearly $1 Million in Jackpots Hit Within a Week on PokerStars PA’s Divine Fortune
What is Divine Fortune?
Divine Fortune offers a 96.6% return to the player. The minimum bet is $0.20 while the maximum is $100. There are 20 pay lines while bonus features include the jackpot, free spins, and a Bonus Round.
The theme of the game, which was released in 2017, is rooted in ancient Greece complete with mythical creatures and an Olympian temple. There’s a 3X5 grid with 20 pay lines and the goal is to get at least three matching symbols working from the far left to right.
To hit the progressive jackpot, a player must make the max bet and trigger the bonus game by getting three or more bonus coin symbols. Those bonus symbols can offer 10-200x your stake, so even if you don’t hit the progressive jackpot you’ll still be primed for a nice payday whenever you’re fortunate enough to enter the bonus round.

The casino section of PokerStars PA also offers games such as Bushido Bounty, Wheel of Fortune Ruby Riches, Jumanji, and the exclusive Pharaoh’s Loot, among many others.
