Major Win at Slotastic Online Casino
A player at Slotastic Casino managed to land herself a $250,000 windfall after playing a series of online slot games at the site. The player made a deposit of $65 into her account and after playing for a while, saw her original deposit turn into $6,000. Thrilled with this sum, the player began a withdrawal process of her funds, before having a last minute change of heart.
“At first I thought I should quit while I was ahead but somehow it just seemed crazy to stop when I was feeling so lucky,” said the player, identified as Susan C., who plays under the user name of CleaningLady at the site.
Armed with her $6,000, the player soon made $11,835 on the Golden Retriever slot game, before trying out games such as Hidden Riches, Crazy Vegas, Texas Tycoon and Big Shot. On most of these games, she had a lucky run and managed to launch free spins which only increased her winnings. Eventually, a major hit on the Loose Caboose video slot game earned her just over $66,000 – which took her total winnings to an incredible quarter of a million dollars.
