For fans of the long running soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful, which has clocked up 25 years of airtime and 26 million global followers, the launch of a new instant game based on the series should be good news. NeoGames, makers of some of the best scratch cards and instant games in the world, has teamed with BBL Distribution Incorporated to create a new Bold and the Beautiful scratch card game which has the potential to pay players out up to $200,000 simply for matching the right images. As part of the marketing campaign ahead of the launch of the new game, lucky winners will be able to fly to LA and watch the taping of one of the shows and rub shoulders with their favorite actors.

“When the opportunity to work with an esteemed name such as The Bold and the Beautiful arose, we saw it as a great chance to bring a recognizable face associated with a great game to our players,” said Shay Bar-Joseph, the Managing Director for NeoGames. “But this is just the beginning as plans are underway to associate ourselves with some major worldwide brands in order to bring our players a whole new experience in online instant-win games.”

Another Big Hit for Mega Fortune Slot

The Mega Fortune slot, which holds the record for the biggest online casino slot win in history, has made headlines again by paying out its progressive jackpot this week. A Norwegian player made €3,949,866.67 a short while after he logged into his account at the Net Entertainment powered BetSafe Casino and started playing Mega Fortune slot. The stunned player could only say: “This is incredible. I couldn’t believe my eyes, and it all happened so very fast!”

In September last year, a player hit the jackpot of €11.7 million, and made the Guinness Book of Records for the largest online slot win ever. In the past 2 years, Mega Fortune slot has paid out over €30 million to players from around the globe.

"We are pleased to see that this life changing win was paid out to one of our loyal customers that have been playing with us since 2007. It's a fantastic story and he managed to hit the jackpot only seconds after logging in to his account. A perfect example of how adrenaline rushed a casino adventure at Betsafe can be," says Simon Furustig, Casino Manager at Betsafe.com.
