Monday 1st March 2004 Indonesian Record Jackpot – Online
The largest online progressive jackpot recorded in Indonesian history was won by InterCasino.com player ‘Dicdinata’, who won a 1,510,876,928 Indonesian Rupiahs ($178,802) MEGA-jackpot on progressive Multi-Player Caribbean Poker from his home in Jakarta.
“We have always had strong players from Asia,” says an excited InterCasino.com casino manager Ryan Hartley, “I’m honored, but not surprised, that we have broken the record for paying the largest-ever jackpot in Indonesia. We have made a concerted effort to make InterCasino.com available to people from all over the globe, and I am happy that our efforts are being reflected in our winners,” he continued
InterCasino.com’s popularity across Asia is booming as players take advantage of their Chinese and Japanese language sites, which are not only translated into local language, but also regionalized to make players who use the local language sites feel comfortable with familiar navigation and web page structures.
“Besides our English site, which allows play in Dollars and Euros, we have local language sites in Chinese, Japanese, French, Italian, German and Spanish. We also offer support in local language for players at each of those sites. We believe that if a casino is going to be global, it needs to dedicate the resources to its international players,” added Hartley.
Dicdinata’s MEGA-jackpot win came only one week after becoming a player at InterCasino.com, yet his win of over one and a half billion Indonesian Rupiahs is among the largest Caribbean Poker progressive jackpots ever paid out online.
On average, InterCasino.com pays out over $1 million a week to its lucky winners.
