Trainwreckstv sets new personal best with massive jackpot payout

It’s not just every day that you win almost $2 million while playing an online slot, which is why Tyler “Trainwreckstv” Niknam’s over-the-top reaction over a recent jackpot payout was fully justifiable. Here’s what he won, and how he managed it.

Trainwreckstv is on quite a win streak in online slots, and while he’s taken his fair share of losses, the size of his recent jackpot wins more than makes up for them. Most recently, he walked away with a $1.66 million win on Stockholm Syndrome, one of his biggest online slot payouts in recent months. Anyone who thought he’d sit back and enjoy his wins was proven wrong when he jumped straight back into the action with another hefty bonus buy while playing Ugliest Catch.

During a recent Kick stream, Trainwreckstv went in with a whopping $207,840 bonus buy in the Ugliest Catch slot, leaving some fans watching live on edge. Luckily, the stars aligned for the streamer, and his big bet resulted in a massive payout.

Trainwrecks’ recent jackpot on Ugliest Catch was a great example of how far luck can take a fortunate bettor, because the streamer looked quite clueless through much of the run. He started with a hefty bonus buy of $207,840, and was visibly concerned when the early spins barely paid out. A $13,000 hit here, a “Gone Phishing” spin resulting in only won $26, and a win total that at one point was sitting around $31K, far below where he began.

But in the next few spins, the streamer broke even when a huge setup formed with multiple stacked fish symbols, boosted further by multipliers rolling in at the top of the screen. These multipliers drastically increased the potential for a massive payout. In just one spin, a 3,200-ways combination dropped and exploded for $1.84 million. That alone flipped the session on its head, but Trainwreckstv hoped for me.

In the next spin, he was clearly hunting for a multiplier bigger than 100x, hoping to top his recent $1.66 million jackpot win, but it didn’t pan out that way. Just before the final spin, a 100x golden fish landed and surprisingly connected with active multipliers, adding on tens of thousands more to his total and pushing his winnings all the way up to $1,916,280. The multiplier wasn’t as big as he had hoped, but the payout was more than enough to leave him visibly satisfied.

The win was so big that the streamer looked confused for a few seconds before finally realizing that he had totaled nearly $2 million in winnings on the slot. Starting from a $240 bet and a six-figure bonus buy, Trainwrecks walked away with over $1.9 million, proving again why high-stakes slots are his signature play.
