Monday 23rd May 2005 Playtech's Winajackpot.com Pays Out $1,853,850
Playtech have announced that Winajackpot.com member Cari M. from Tennessee has scooped a record $1,853,850 playing Gold Rally 8-line Slots at SCasino.com - part of the CasinoLasVegas Group, a member of the Winajackpot network of Playtech-powered casinos.
Cari's windfall comes only months the previous record-breaking jackpot of $1,031,270 was paid out in January to Alex O. of Santiago, Chile. It also marks the sixth successive biggest amount won by a Winajackpot.com member playing Gold Rally, a progressive 8-line Wild West themed slot game featuring two interactive bonus stages.
Cari, who only began playing online in January 2005, has won more in a single jackpot than many win in a lifetime. By wagering the $16 maximum bet, Cari's return on investment was an 115,866:1.
'This is a truly astonishing event,' said Michelle Roberts of Winajackpot. 'Not only does Cari's win trump all previous jackpots on Winajackpot and any other network, it only took a mere ten weeks for the Gold Rally jackpot to accumulate to nearly two million dollars since the last
wipeout win. This is clearly a hit game.'
