Looking at the usernames of big jackpot winners it looks like they almost
always choose a nickname that they either have in real life or they choose
something that relates to them. One player who chose the handle LUCKY has
turned the name into a reality at InterCasino.
An avid online gambler, LUCKY has been playing at InterCasino since 2001.
She always dreamed of winning a big jackpot on the slots but her main game
is video poker. Today her decision to give slots a try turned out to be
the right one - a few moments later she was $199,276 richer!
"I could not believe it, I was very surprised. I put $30 in and I was
on my last 3 coins. My game is usually video poker, but I finished playing
that and thought, I'd check out what the progressive jackpots are because
I told my husband last summer that I was going to win Rags to Riches one
day.
I called my husband, who was away on business, and he just didn't
believe me. He called me back and asked if I was joking! I called
him several times and he just wasn't excited about it. But when he
got home he finally believed me and now he is as excited as I am.
It couldn't come at a more opportune time. I just took an early retirement
from work and this is going to pay off my house. I left work on June
13th and I go into full retirement at March 1st, so this will hold
me over just fine."
The win is not the first time she has been LUCKY at InterCasino,
in fact her username is regularly seen on the "Latest Winners" section
of the InterCasino web site (A great place to see who's been winning
lately).
"Just from my winnings from InterCasino I paid off my jeep six months
after I bought it, it's a brand new Grand Cherokee. I got my husband
a new truck last winter, and we got a third car, a little commuter
car, and I have bought myself a bunch of really nice jewelry. The
only thing we owe on is our house, and now InterCasino has taken
care of that too. I feel like writing them a thank you note."
Does LUCKY have any advice for other players? "Be careful and gamble
responsibly. I think I am a responsible gambler - but I still
manage to win." Great advice, we could not have said it better ourselves!
Editors Note : While LUCKY has been able to do great things with
her money such as buy new cars and jewelry it is important to mention
that like LUCKY says "You should always gamble responsibly". Gambling
online or offline should never be used as a way to solve financial
problems.
