"The jackpot has built up over a long time, and it is always nice when a normal customer becomes a Betsson millionaire. The prize is the largest single win we have ever paid out, and shows that it is possible to win big even with small stakes," said Marius Andersen, Betsson Norway Country Manager.

The winner played the Betsson Casino Arabian Nights progressive jackpot, a game that has made numerous instant millionaires.

Betsson will be launching a TV commercial that celebrates the winner.
