Tuesday 27th October 2009 Retired Grandmother Wins Slotland $175k Jackpot
Premier online slots site, Slotland, has done a retired grandmother a pretty big favour – she has become the latest winner of a massive online casino bonus, earning a $175,812 prize playing the video poker game Jacks or Better.
“Maybe I am just getting too old, but within thirty minutes of getting inside a casino, I get a headache with all the noise and music blasting around me,” said the lucky winner. “For over five years, Slotland has been one of my little pleasures.”
She had a great streak of luck to contribute to her near-$200,000 score, beginning with a full house and increasing her bets to $10; soon turning her $200 deposit into $500.
“In the next five hands, I ended up with a straight, 3 of a kind (twice), a dead hand, and a beautiful four of a kind,” QAZMLP recalled about the night that changed her life. “With some nice music in the background, and my drink on the desk, and breathing smoke-free air, who wouldn’t be happy?”
She wound up hitting a spade royal flush, which sent her account balance into the stratosphere. She plans to pay off the last $30,000 on her house then take a trip to Japan and Hawaii.
