there are now 4 winners as far as i know. scotty77 before Froozle. Before those two, i recall it being a pool increased by £100 a week if not won. so the amounts that dylan12 and alan1506 won might have been quite different.
Ryan, from what I can gather, is the only other person besides Froozle to win the £5k FTJ. (I'm getting this from archived content pages, it MIGHT very well be that prior to my joining, the pages might not have been updated).
Interestingly (which astounded me when I first read it), when Ryan won the £6,000 Rebuy Open back in 2014 andrew1947 was the runner up, again!
Other names that hover around that time are POKEY2011 and henners10 - who are both mentioned in the recent article.

I stand corrected Alan1506 won £6,800. So there are now four very happy players in the Jackpot club with an extra £20,000+ in binkage between them. Posted by GaryQQQ
Yup. Alan1506 turned up at one of our Live Events shortly after - smashing lad - & I still keep in touch with Dylan, &, of course, Ryan. Can't say I know Mr Froozle though, but a lovely bit of bonus for him.
The jackpot is a really fun benefit to playing on Sky Poker. Doesn't really get mentioned often enough in terms of encouraging people who haven't taken a look at Sky to play here but I know it's very much appreciated by the regulars.
Definitely not easy to win but it's a freeroll that happens all the time and can be accessed by anyone.

Iirc previous £5,000 winners are Dylan12 and Alan1506. I don't think Ryan has ever won it.
Pretty sure Ryan picked up £5,000, too, but it's not often you are wrong, so I'll not argue with that.

Great achievement Froozle.

Froozle nearly did it again last night.
A near miss with 3rd and 10th
