Online Casino in $1.3 Million Payout



Bodog.com has added another online casino winner to its roster of millionaires after a UK based player scooped $1.3 million from a $5 bet on the ‘Jacks or Better’ video poker game.

The player, who wishes to remain anonymous, wagered $5 and was paid $5 for his pair of queens on the ‘Jacks or Better’ video game, and from thereon took advantage of the option to double up, giving players a 50 percent chance of winning each time. After doubling up successfully a further sixteen times, the UK based player became the latest addition to Bodog.com’s millionaire’s club.

Commenting on his win, the player said, 'I thought about cashing out after breaking $40,000, but decided to continue. Then when I broke one million, I was tempted by the thought of doubling up on over one million dollars, but finally decided against it.'

Bodog.com founder Calvin Ayre reflected, 'Bodog.com's casino continuously aims to raise the bar with this type of entertainment and we couldn't be happier to make some dreams happen while we're at it.'
