With the last hours of 2010 ticking away, an online punter on the Bet365 online casino site hit a major progressive win Thursday whilst playing the Clover Rollover slot, a 5 reel, 5 pay-line game where players need to bet a maximum bet of $1 on all 5 pay-lines to qualify for the jackpot. To hit the progressive jackpot 5 lucky shamrock symbols must appear on any pay-line.
Online gambler taloo1 could hardly believe his eyes when the elusive five shamrocks aligned on his screen, bringing him a jackpot worth GBP3 922 736. The delighted player told casino management that he planned “…a cracking party” as an immediate reaction, but had yet to decide what to do with his seriously large windfall.
“He was stunned but excited,” a casino spokesman said, adding that taloo1’s win was probably the casino’s biggest yet.
