Player secures online jackpot win of 1.4 million Euros
Jackpot Madness has announced that one of its players has broken the online jackpot record. Joaquim M, 50, has taken home an incredible 1,453,610 Euros on the operator’s Major Millions progressive slot at Jackpot City Casino earlier this week.
According to Jackpot Madness, run by Jumbo Jackpots of Curacao, this is the fourth player to join the ranks of previous millionaires. Joaquim M. will be the first European Major Millionaire when he takes his winnings in one single cash payment just in time to celebrate his 50th birthday and 25th wedding anniversary.
‘This win is especially exciting after we launched the international site and multi-currency options eight months ago. We are delighted to see our newest record breaker comes from the ranks of our international players. This will mark the first time that Jackpot Madness crowns a millionaire in Euros,’ says Francine Haliva, spokesperson for Jackpot Madness.
Joaquim was injured 9 years ago and has been unable to work since. When quizzed about the secret of his good fortune Joaquim said: ‘If you don’t play you don’t have a chance of winning. I also plan to invest some of the winnings and share part with my son and daughter who are currently college students.’
