Stake.com Casino Pays Third $1M+ Payout In A Week

The battle of software developers (and players) is heating up at Stake Casino. Just a few days ago, Hacksaw Gaming made the headlines as two of its slots dropped 7-figure wins.

Now, Pragmatic Play is getting in on the act. This third win came on one of Pragmatic’s newest releases - Hot Pepper. The lucky player hit a 1,107x multiplier from a $994.99 bet to pick up $1,101,750.87.

Pragmatic Play is one of the fastest-growing software developers in the industry. Its portfolio contains many exciting slots, which combined with Drops & Wins, have made them a firm player favorite. 

Hot Pepper, which was launched in December 2022, is a 7x7 cluster pays slot that offers up to 10,000x payouts on any spin. Players need to land a minimum cluster of five matching symbols to get a payout.

With each win, a random multiplier is added to the board. The winning cluster explodes and new symbols drop down to hopefully complete more winning clusters. As you get more consecutive wins, the level of the random multiplier increases (1 - 5), offering the possibility of 128x payouts on a single cluster. It’s possible to combine multipliers for even larger payouts.

Hot Pepper isn’t overloaded with bonus features. This is common for cluster pays slots, to be honest, because of the multiple win potential from a single spin in the main game.

The one bonus game is a free spins feature. This is triggered when players land three bonus symbols on the reels. You start with 12 free spins and the random multiplier is on level 5 throughout.

If you want to cut to the chase and dive straight into the bonus round, you can buy the free spins feature for 100x your bet amount. This is a risky strategy but potentially very rewarding for those who want to try it.
