Online Casino player wins 75K
6th February, 2009
It's many people's dream to play at an online casino and win a Jackpot, but last week this dream became reality for Neil Foot. The football fan was looking to place a few bets on the mid week games but decided to have a quick go on the William Hill Vegas site.
Spending only £1 on the 'Goldrush Showdown' he won the huge £75,000 progressive Jackpot. Foot had already won £600 on the the same game before Christmas.
The 23 year old financial analyst, opened his William online account using it to only bet on the Football however had a couple spins on a few casino and Skill games. He intends to spend the money wisely, putting a deposit down on a new house. He also is planning a luxury holiday and will be splashing some of his moneyon his girlfriend and friends.
He joked "My win is really down to my girlfriend Ellie". "She is always moaning at me for being online - on the Internet or looking up the footie odds. It was only because we weren't able to meet up that day that I was playing on my computer, and look what happened! We're now planning a lovely holiday and she won't be able to moan at me for a while now!"
“I’m over the moon with the win, it's great to have a decent deposit for a house, but I am going to go shopping and enjoy myself a bit too. I had applied to the ticket ballot for the next Man Utd and Liverpool game but if I'm not selected then I'm going to splash out on some corporate hospitality for my mates, as well as taking Ellie away on holiday."
William Hill spokesperson Lili Huang said, “It seems that Goldrush Showdown likes Neil as much as he likes the game. William Hill Vegas has paid out more than £2,000,000 in jackpots since the website was setup, and it has become one of our most popular gaming sites."
