Fisherman hauls in £5.4 million with BetVictor Casino

1st November 2013 11:02 AM

A cod fisherman from Aberdeenshire has hauled in a staggering £5.4 million jackpot by playing on the slots at BetVictor casino, taking home the UK’s biggest ever online slot payout.

The married father of one reeled in the massive prize by winning a progressive jackpot, which began with him placing an initial 20p spin wager on the Hall of Gods game. He might have been inspired by the buzz created by the cinematic release of Thor: The Dark World and chose to hit the reels with the likes of Thor, Odin and Loki – clearly the Norse gods were smiling on him on the day of his big windfall!

Naturally thrilled with his win, the Scot commented: “There’s no need to ask how I’m feeling, yahoo should answer that! I guess we all chase the dream, and winning the biggest ever UK online jackpot has been a dream come true for me and my family, as it will change our lives; we have no worries about the future now.”

Although the multi-million prize might tempt the fisherman to hang up his rod, he has no such plans and, ironically, wants to keep his feet on the ground by staying on the seas! He says he will continue trawling as it’s his way of life and he would miss life on the sea if he took permanent shore leave.

The plucky North Sea fisher is a regular BetVictor player, wagering on the casino, sportsbook and poker games for years. Commending his loyalty, Andrew Dymock, Head of eGaming at BetVictor, comments: “I couldn’t be happier for one of our most loyal of Scottish customer’s to pick up this fantastic jackpot, and it was a pleasure to congratulate him after his win. This jackpot is the biggest single win BetVictor has ever paid out.”

The lucky fisherman isn’t the only millionaire that the major casino brand has created this year: six months ago another player wagered on the Mega Fortune slot game and scooped a cool £4.5 million. BetVictor has now expanded to offer over 600 casino games and recently launched their new live casino, leading officials to speculate that there could even be more millionaires to come before the end of the year.

Spurring on hopeful players, our latest winner comments: “Keep chasing your dreams as, like me, they might just come true. BetVictor is the number one site for me – who knows who could be next to hit the jackpot?”
