$250 win for lucky blackjack player
A 21 player known as Joseph B picked up $250 last week when he became the second winner of Bodog Casino's Blackjack Wednesdays.
On July 23rd, the resident of Farmingdale, New York was the recipient of the 100,000th blackjack hand on the website, qualifying him for the bonus prize, Bodog Beat reports.
His win follows that of Melrose, Massachusetts native Marshall S, who achieved the same feat the week before.
Blackjack has been in the news a lot recently, after rapper Jay-Z told Time Out magazine that he loves playing the game, particularly in private gambling clubs in London.
That interview was followed by reports that retired basketball star Charles Barkley is giving up his favourite gaming pastime.
Earlier this week, Jason Kidd of Dallas Mavericks, Dwayne Wade of Miami Heat and New Orleans Hornet Chris Paul were all to be found playing blackjack in Nevada, according to the Las Vegas Sun.
