30 June 2004
WinAJackpot.com member Brenda J.’s life changed forever on 22 June when she scooped a record $645,318 in prize money playing Gold Rally 8-line Slots at USA Casino – a member of the WinAJackpot network of Playtech-powered casinos.
Brenda’s windfall of $645,319 is the highest paid to date by progressive jackpot portal WinAJackpot.com to a single player, topping the previous record win of $603,212 claimed by David P., also playing Gold Rally Slots, in April of this year. Other fortune-making games available on the WinAJackpot network include multi-line bonus stage slots Diamond Valley, Cinerama and Wall Street Fever.
Long a favorite among slots fans, Gold Rally is a progressive Wild West themed slot game revamped in a new 8-line format and featuring no less then two interactive bonus stages. Brenda won her $645,319 by wagering the $16 maximum bet – a return on investment of 40,332:1!
USA Casino Manager David Washington stressed the unique community dynamic of WinAJackpot’s progressive games. “It’s always a massive thrill when one of our players hits a big network jackpot,” he said. “The progressives belong to our players – the jackpots are built up from their contributions on slot games right across the network – so a big win like this makes it all worthwhile.”
“We have paid out nearly one-and-a-quarter million dollars in prize money to two players alone in the past two months, and that’s not including the many other winners who took home five- and six-figure sums,” said Michelle Roberts of WinAJackpot. “Brenda’s winning is the highest sum we’ve paid out to date. We are really thrilled for her and we hope others will follow her path to fortune. Look’s like 2004 is shaping up to be a record year for jackpot winners.”
The WinAJackpot team congratulates Brenda J. on her win and wishes her the very best for the future.
