Unibet player crowned fifteenth Dream Drop millionaire following Dueling Jokers win
Relax Gaming, the iGaming aggregator and supplier of unique content, has seen its Dream Drop Mega Jackpot hit for a fifteenth time, with one lucky player landing the epic jackpot at Unibet.
The player scooped a total of €2.9 million (€2,978,317.62) after placing a bet of just €1 on Four Leaf Gaming’s Dueling Jokers Dream Drop.
The latest win swiftly follows the Dream Drop Jackpot’s fourteenth Mega Jackpot drop in March, meaning a total sum of more than €8.4 million has been paid out in 2024.
Released in November 2022, Dueling Jokers Dream Drop sees players attend a party in an underground disco packed full of electrifying jokers.
Boasting features including Wild Jokers, a Joker Meter, Super Spinner and more, this title has an array of elements to keep players engaged as they go in search of the max win of 50,000x.
Martin Stålros, CEO of Relax Gaming, said: “We are not even halfway through 2024 and this is the third millionaire that Dream Drop has created this year, and we couldn’t be happier.
“The frequency of these big jackpots being won is exactly what we envisioned when we launched Dream Drop and we are thrilled that the mechanic’s momentum has continued at rapid pace. Our sincere congratulations go to the lucky winner.”
Andy Hollis, Co-founder of Four Leaf Gaming, said: “We are over the moon to have two out of the last three Dream Drop Mega Jackpot winners on the Four Leaf Gaming portfolio. Dueling Jokers was the first Dream Drop game we launched and it’s great to see it’s still performing well, making another multimillionaire from only a €1 bet makes it even sweeter.
“We are super excited to be releasing two more Dream Drop games in 2024 and hopefully we will see more of these huge winners in the future!”
Pierluigi Rinaldi, Head of Gaming Business Development at Kindred Group, said: “We are thrilled to announce yet another Dream Drop Jackpot winner at Unibet. This incredible win highlights the excitement and spine-tingling potential of Dream Drop. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to the lucky winner.”
Established as one of the industry’s leading B2B suppliers, Relax Gaming was awarded GGA’s Product Launch of the Year in February 2023 for Dream Drop Jackpots. Money Train 3 names the 2023 CasinoBeats Game Developer Awards amongst its 6 Slot of the Year titles, while the brand also won the award for Skill Games Supplier at the 2023 EGR B2B Awards along with the Innovation in Mobile award at the 2023 SBC Awards.
Relax Gaming provides more than 4,000 online casino games, from its high-performing proprietary slots to a significant, varied library of content from hand-picked third-party studios via its partnership programmes.

BOYLE Sports
BOYLE Sports deploys automated acca technology as bookmakers accelerate shift to pre-configured betting
BOYLE Sports has become the latest major bookmaker to deploy automated accumulator technology, following a new two-year agreement with Checkd Dev that will see the operator roll out pre-configured, one-click acca products across football and horse racing.
The partnership sees BOYLE Sports integrate Checkd Dev’s Automated Betting System (ABS) into its sportsbook, enabling the automated creation and presentation of pre-match football and UK and Irish horse racing accumulator bets. The deployment forms part of a broader update to BOYLE Sports’ betting proposition, aimed at delivering scalable, consistent acca products while retaining full control over pricing and risk.
Through the integration, BOYLE Sports has launched two carousels containing packaged accumulator bets, generated using predefined logic and historical performance data. All pricing remains aligned with BOYLE Sports’ internal trading models, with probabilities informed by historic form rather than external odds feeds.
From an operational standpoint, ABS provides BOYLE Sports’ trading team with backend tooling to automate bet creation, updates, and settlement, significantly reducing manual intervention while supporting a consistent pre-match offering across key markets. The solution also integrates BOYLE Sports’ existing Acca Boost mechanics, available to customers from launch.
ABS is built on Checkd Dev’s proprietary BRUNO platform and has evolved over a two-year development cycle. Initially designed as a statistics-led conversion tool, the system has expanded into a fully automated betting solution in response to growing operator demand for scalable, pre-configured wagering products within regulated markets. The product is integrated with the operator’s front end and bet slip, resulting in a frictionless experience for end users.
The BOYLE Sports deployment follows a series of recent commercial agreements for Checkd Dev, including partnerships with Betfred, William Hill, and OpenBet. Collectively, these integrations reflect a wider trend among established bookmakers toward automation-led betting products designed to improve efficiency, consistency, and user experience across football betting.
Adam Matues, Head of Sportsbook at BOYLE Sports, commented: “Pre-configured accas continue to play an important role in how customers engage with football and racing, but they need to be delivered in a way that is both scalable and commercially robust. Checkd Dev’s automated approach allows us to expand our acca offering efficiently, while maintaining full control over pricing, performance, and risk.”
Andrew Grimshaw, Commercial Director at Checkd Dev, added: “We’re seeing increasing demand from tier-one and tier-two operators for automated betting products that enhance UX while remaining fully aligned with existing trading frameworks. BOYLE Sports’ decision to deploy our ABS reflects that shift, and we’re looking forward to supporting the team on both sports as the product scales over the coming seasons.”

SlotMatrix Unleashes Fiesta-Fueled Thrills with Muertos Fortune
SlotMatrix, the leading global casino content aggregator, has incorporated Muertos Fortune into its unique collection, a vibrant slot drawing inspiration from the lively energy and festivities of Day of the Dead customs.
Muertos Fortune welcomes players to a vibrant realm filled with music and color, where each spin leads to grander moments and more exciting rewards.
The Money Collector function centers on the Muertos symbol that shows up on reel five, serving as the chief collector by retrieving cash values from piñata prizes positioned throughout the reels to enhance winnings and enable extra rewards.
A significant feature of the gameplay is its Perceived Persistence mechanic, enabling piñata rewards that fall uncollected to fill the giant skull above the reels.
As the skull fills up, it explodes, activating the Free Spins feature filled with Muertos’ collections, greater piñata values, and opportunities for several retriggers, transforming growing excitement into massive payout possibilities.
Muertos Fortune can only be accessed via SlotMatrix and is upgraded by EveryMatrix’s sophisticated gamification features, such as free spins, tournaments, and leaderboards. It can additionally be combined with EngageSuite, the all-in-one player loyalty solution.
