Lucky Punter Hits $1.8 million Jackpot On PartyCasino Slot
June 1, 2010 10:42 amA 48-year old man was celebrating a life changing windfall after scooping $1,888,198 while playing the SuperStar progressive slot machine at PartyCasino.com.
The lucky winner of the Gold Mega Jackpot lives on a horse farm with his long time partner and was playing the online slot on Friday night when all of a sudden, as he describes:
” These squares came up – I hit complete and the screen lit up in loads of colour. Then the number appeared on the screen – I had never seen so many numbers in my life – it was an international phone number!”
The lucky player, whose on screen name is Arkry222, had put $2 into the SuperStar progressive slot machine when he hit the jackpot, but it still took a while for the win to sink in, with his partner initially believing that it must be “play money.”
Such was the confusion following the incident that he even missed a courtesy call from the VIP team at PartyCasino.com, but when he re-checked his account and found it over $1.8 million in credit he realised the immensity of his good fortune. As he describes:
“I was numb – I was on a different planet…I hadn’t been feeling well all week, now I was just in this strange kind of happy limbo…Winning this jackpot has been so surreal – I really needed convincing that it was true – I thought there simply had to be a catch somewhere.”
Arkry222 enjoyed his incredible win on the 7th May, and the self confessed infrequent player said he now intends to spend some of the money on a holiday, a new car and new house. He said he would also try his luck playing some more slots on PartyCasino, such as “Melon Madness and The Circus.”
