Sky High Win

Sky Vegas, Sky's UK Online Casino, reports a major win by local player L.A. last Tuesday when he scooped GBP 1 547 415.18 from a GBP 2,25 stake. The North London-resident bagged the life-changing sum while playing one of Cryptologic-powered Sky Vegas' newest and most popular online slot games, Millionaire's Club.

Around 9.55pm the lucky player spun the reels, landed 3 Millionaire's Club logos sending him to the Millionaire's Wheel feature, where the wheel landed on the jackpot win. For a GBP 2.25 stake, L.A watched his winnings roll up to over one-and-a-half million pounds, paid in one tranche by the progressive jackpot network.

Sales manager L.A., who is engaged to be married, plans to spend some of his newly acquired wealth on a new home, as well as an idyllic holiday to the tropical islands of the Seychelles.

"To be honest, I'm still in shock," said the player. "I thought I was dreaming! I love Sky Vegas because it's so easy to use. I've been playing the game for the last month in the hope of winning a million but hitting the jackpot is one of those things you always think happens to other people."

Managing Director of Sky Betting & Gaming, Richard Flint, said: "We are delighted to see Sky Vegas' first Millionaire's Club instant millionaire. Skyvegas.com now has over 100 of the best games on the internet, and this is attracting players in record numbers - so we expect to see more big wins like this in the coming months".

"Our congratulations go out to him and his fiancée. Winning big for a small outlay is every player's dream and last night Mr L.A.'s dream came true."

Millionaire's Club Slots is a nine line, five reel progressive online slot game, which online gamblers can play over a wagering range from 10p up to GBP 180 per spin and a minimum progressive jackpot GBP 175 000.
