Texan Player Makes Mobile Gaming History
A Texas man became the first Slotland.com player to hit the jackpot on a mobile phone and is the biggest mobile gambling winner to date. The player known as “OlympiaGold” won $163,114 playing Slotland.com’s 'Lucky Stars' slot machine.
On day of his win, the Texas jackpot winner was initially playing Slotland.com’s newest mobile slot ‘Golden 8’, but then hit his lucky streak when he switched to ‘Lucky Stars’.
“I don't know why, but I always feel that new games are looser than the older games,” said the historic winner. “But that Sunday morning, I wasn’t winning much on the Golden 8 so I went back to my old favourite, Lucky Stars.”
Hannah Morante of Slotland.com said of the win, “Our jackpot is hit every six weeks or so but this the first time it’s been won by someone using a mobile phone, and it’s also our biggest jackpot ever, breaking our previous record of $162,514.”
Slotland.com now features three unique games in its mobile suite and eight different slot machines plus video poker on the web site. Both mobile and web games share the same progressive jackpot pool.
