Klaus Talks About His Win
There are few people in the world who wouldn’t agree that Klaus E. is one of the
luckiest gamblers in the world. Online casinos can certainly be lucrative for
some gamblers, but most casual gamblers understand that the gambling is not the
place bet on becoming a millionaire – the chances are extremely slim. But for
the Finnish gambler, hitting the $5.5 million jackpot on the Blackjack Ballroom
online casino gambling site – the win was both unexpected and unheard of up to
this point. The $5.5 million payout is one of the largest regular jackpot
payouts in the online gambling industry.
Progressive jackpots frequently build into the millions, but Klaus E. had no way
to anticipate hitting such a huge jackpot while gambling at online casinos. And
what is so surprising for some is the fact that the gambler placed a mere 50
cent on the slots game which then triggered the huge payout. Klaus E. elaborated
on what he felt when he realized he had hit the jackpot, “When I saw 5 556 753
flash on my computer screen I thought it was a US phone number," the super-lucky
Finn recalled this week. "It couldn't be a jackpot, I must be mistaken! So I
just got up from my table, went outside to clear my head, and then came back in
again for another look... and noticed $5.5 million sitting in my casino
account!”
The Finnish player was then flown by Casino Rewards – the parent company for
Blackjack Ballroom, and received a weekend of complimentary fun in Sydney in
addition to receiving his $5.5 million in winnings. Some of the other exiting
elements that the online casino gambler noted about his trip to Sydney expanded
beyond just his millions in winnings. He remarked: “The highlight of my trip?
Apart from collecting my enormous check, it was having my photo taken with a
koala bear!”
The Finnish gambler’s $5.5 million in winnings marks a turning point for the
online casino gambling industry – internet gambling has now rivaled the land
gambling industry for some of the biggest gambling payouts in history.
