New Player Wins $265K Jackpot at sportingbetUSA.com

January 19, 2004 (London, UK) - What a way for sportingbetUSA.com player Jonathan M to start 2005. On New Years Day he hit the jackpot playing Bermuda Poker and won a total of $265,099.85 at the sportingbetUSA.com poker table!

“It hasn’t really sunk in yet,” said Jonathan in amazement. “I’m not sure what to do with a huge chunk of cash like this. I guess one New Years resolution I should make is to keep on playing at sportingbetUSA.com!”

Jonathan only started betting at sportingbetUSA.com last fall but he’s certainly glad he did now. He just registered with sportingbetUSA.com last September and he’s been a regular casino games player since then.

“Can you imagine the thrill of winning a huge jackpot like that one? “, said Alex Czajkowski, Marketing Director for Sportingbet PLC Americas Region. “Our players love our progressive jackpots; they can play their favorite games for hours and sometimes hit the ridiculously large jackpot!'

Bermuda poker is a solo version of the world’s most popular card game, poker. Bermuda poker pits you, the player, against the dealer and you are paid out according to the rank of your poker hand.

This is the second most popular casino game at sportingbetUSA. The last winner of the Bermuda Poker Jackpot was Tim H who took home $233,704 in September 2004 when he hit a royal flush while playing the progressive bet. The Jackpot is already back up over a quarter million dollars.
