Jackpot Palooza! AGS Table Progressives Charge Up Big Wins

Winter may be bringing the chill, but casino floors are heating up fast. Over the past week, blackjack tables connected to AGS progressive systems have delivered eye-popping jackpots, turning modest side bets into life-changing wins.

On Friday, January 30, a lucky guest at Mohegan Sun’s Casino of the Earth in Uncasville, Connecticut struck gold while playing Super 4® Blackjack. With just a $5 side bet, the player walked away with a staggering $703,977, thanks to AGS’ STAX Progressive® platform.

The winning hand featured the ace, king, queen, and jack of diamonds—a dream combination that unlocked the Super 4 Progressive. This popular blackjack side bet pays when the dealer has blackjack, with payout amounts determined by both the dealer’s and player’s cards.

First introduced at Mohegan Sun in 2015, Super 4 Blackjack has remained a fan favorite ever since, consistently drawing players with its high-energy gameplay and big-win potential.

The hot streak didn’t stop there.

Just days later, on Tuesday, February 3, a guest at Sky River Casino in Elk Grove, California hit the largest Bonus Spin Xtreme® (BSX) Triple Diamond Progressive jackpot in the property’s history, taking home $700,503. It’s the biggest BSX Triple Diamond win recorded at Sky River since the casino opened in August 2022.

The Bonus Spin Xtreme platform is designed to link multiple table games—often across pits and even different game types—creating nonstop excitement and more chances to win. Since Sky River opened, AGS’ BSX system alone has helped deliver millions of dollars in progressive payouts.

With more than 2,000 tables across North America, AGS’ progressive platforms—STAX and Bonus Spin Xtreme—continue to transform the table games experience, offering thrilling side bets, multi-level jackpots, and unforgettable, life-changing moments for players.
