Recent Jackpots Highlight the Thrill and variety of Progressive Side Bets at Mohegan Sun
UNCASVILLE, CT (June 4, 2026) – In an incredible one-week span in May, two lucky guests at Mohegan Sun each struck table game jackpots exceeding $450,000. Both jackpots were won by players taking advantage of side bets – one on a Blackjack game through the Super 4 Progressive side bet and the other on a Four Card Poker game where the Mega Jackpot was struck from a side bet.
The first of the two jackpots came on Sunday, May 10th, on a Blackjack table in Casino of the Sky when a visitor won $458,952 landing a 4-card royal flush while having $5 on the Super 4 Progressive side bet. Just one week later, on Sunday, May 17th, in Casino of the Earth, another lucky guest followed suit with a $481,892 jackpot after placing a side bet in a Four Card Poker game and landing a royal flush in hearts.
