The Playtech-powered Europa online casino rather tardily announced a major progressive jackpot winner this week, reporting that Canadian online punter Jocelyn Sirois won Cdn$524,556.55 playing the Beach Life slot….on November 20, 2010!
A member of Europa Casino since August 2008, Jocelyn Sirois was originally drawn to the casino based on user reviews, quickly discovering that the games and services on offer suited her gambling needs. She became a regular visitor, winning several small jackpots prior to her big win in November.
Sirois plans to take her winnings and retire, so that she can travel and play golf in Arizona. She also plans to continue trying her luck playing online casino games, she told the casino management.
Regrettably, as is so often the case with these big winner announcements, the publicity blurb was more intent on promoting the casino than delivering the more interesting personal angle on a player who has won a life-changing amount of money, and little more is known about Sirois and how she achieved the big hit.
