The Partouche group has established itself as one of France’s leading casino operators. While it generates less revenue each year than its main rival, the Barrière group, it owns more gaming establishments. Indeed, it has around thirty complexes in France, plus others in Switzerland, Belgium, and Tunisia. Among these largest are the casinos in Aix-en-Provence, Saint-Armand-les-Eaux, and La Tour de Salvagny near Lyon.
It was at the Casino du Lyon Vert that a player just managed to win the famous Partouche Megapot progressive jackpot . On Thursday, September 24, she won more than 2 million euros!
A trip to the casino after a good meal at the restaurant
Our lucky winner is 71 years old. Originally from the southern Ain region, she has been a regular at the Casino du Lyon Vert for nearly 20 years. Her daughter lives near the establishment, and she regularly visits it. This was precisely the case these days.
On this occasion, the two women enjoyed a delicious meal at a restaurant and to end their evening in style, they went to the Casino du Lyon Vert in La Tour de Salvagny. And it must be said that it was a trip full of strong emotions.
Indeed, at the casino, our septuagenarian played a slot machine that offered a chance to win the famous Megapot progressive jackpot. With a simple bet of €2, she managed to win this jackpot. In a single spin of the reels, this earned her no less than €2,182,364.79.

Megapot Progressive Jackpot: A Famous Multi-Site Jackpot
Perhaps some readers are unfamiliar with the Megapot. It’s a progressive jackpot. This jackpot isn’t fixed. Instead, it gradually increases thanks to players’ bets. In fact, a small percentage of all bets is taken to gradually increase the amount of money that can be won. Of course, once the jackpot has been reached, it drops back to a lower amount and gradually increases again thanks to players’ bets.
The additional unique feature of this Megapot is that it can be won on a network of over 180 slot machines spread across 39 casinos. All are connected simultaneously, and every bet placed on any of the machines is counted towards increasing the overall jackpot.
In short, the amounts to be pocketed increase quickly and can thus reach very large sums. This is why 5 or 6-figure winnings are not lacking. Before the jackpot of €2,182,360.79 won at the Casino du Lyon Vert on September 24, it was also at this establishment that the Megapot had previously fallen to €511,583.45 on May 7, 2019. Previously, it had brought in €201,459.31 at the Casino de La Grande Motte on February 16, 2019, €382,388.90 at the Casino de Nice – Palais de la Méditerranée on January 8, 2019, and €478,777.73 at the Casino de La Grande Motte on January 1, 2019.
