Poker Player Wins $7.5m At PartyCasino

Poker Player Wins $7.5m At PartyCasinoOne lucky punter is celebrating his incredible good fortune after winning a $7,525,851 jackpot while playing the online slots at PartyCasino.com.  Following his life changing win, the 46 year-old Canadian man commented:
“Wow! I’m a millionaire, thank you – I want to thank Party Casino for changing mine, my wife and my family’s lives forever.”
Interestingly, the Canadian man is actually an aspiring online poker player who two years ago quit his job of 23 years to try his hand playing poker for a living. On the night of his big win, he said he was playing at PartyPoker trying to win a seat to the Montreal World Poker Tour and that after registering for a satellite decided to spend the $21 he still had in his account at the online poker room’s sister site PartyCasino. He said he was hoping to double up his money at the casino and had just put $3 into the Melon Madness slot when, as he explains:
“After a couple of spins, I hit the big one! The pop up on the screen was saying I won over 7 MILLION! I thought to myself, wow, it took me 2 years to realize that I’m a mediocre poker player and only 2 or 3 spins to realize that I’m really, really good at slots! Thank you PartyCasino!”
Had his $7.5 million win been won playing poker at the World Series Of Poker (WSOP), he would be placed 12th overall on the ‘WSOP Money List’ ahead of such pros as Phil Ivey currently 19th with $5,868,853 in WSOP winnings.  PartyCasino has now created 22 millionaires over the past few years, but the latest winner’s huge $7.5 million payout has smashed the previous record set at the online casino back in 2009 of $4,978,336.
