LONDON
– June 6 - Brian Somers, a 39-year-old self employed
landscape gardener from a council estate in Sunderland, UK, is
celebrating after raking in a record Party
Casino jackpot
of $1,092,957.68 (£551,000) from an 18 cents spin (9p)!!!
Brian, who
earns between £5,000 - £10,000 a year, won the PartyMega
Jackpot on the Super Fortune Wheel game at the online casino
last week and such a big jackpot from such a tiny stake is a
world first.
Party
Casino
is a popular member of PartyGaming Plc’s growing suite of
online games.

Ricardo en zijn vrouw zeiden:
"Just for the fun of it, we tried the slots," said
Ricardo in a statement. "Within a couple of minutes,
we'd won the $1,200 jackpot and then very soon afterwards we
won the Mega Jackpot. We stared at the screen, we simply
froze. We looked at each other and didn't believe what had
happened but the money was already in our account. As soon
as we received a telephone call from a VIP Party Host, we
knew for sure -- it's real!"
Het
echtpaar heeft grootse plannen met de gewonnen prijs.
Ze wilden
al heel lang een eigen kledinglijn opzetten, maar dat was
financieel niet haalbaar. Door het winnen van de Jackpot
kunnen zij niet alleen hun droom verwezenlijken maar
hebben zij volgens Ricardo ook de studie van hun kinderen
veilig gesteld.
