Business Wire: Danish Player Wins $198,292 on Online Slot Machine; InterCasino.com's Rags to Riches

LONDON -- InterCasino (www.InterCasino.com) player, known by his username 'Sture', conquered online slot machine Rags to Riches with Viking-like celerity after just $21 of play. Sture, 38 year-old from Denmark, was playing the generous progressive early yesterday morning after his girlfriend left for work. Sture planned on playing through around $20 and then calling it quits; but luckily for him, he played an extra spin and on the 21st dollar Sture hit the jackpot for a staggering $198,292.

"I have been a player at InterCasino for about six months, and I have always liked InterCasino.com. I play slots and European Roulette - just a little Roulette, five dollars on black or red once and a while - but Roulette never paid out $198,292!" said an excited Sture.

Sture isn't what most casinos consider a high roller, Sture bets for entertainment and makes each bet last. In fact, Sture says he has only wagered about two thousand dollars since joining InterCasino, and by his accounting he was already up one thousand before hitting his MEGA-Jackpot.

"I knew I could win a jackpot but I never expected to. Of course, each spin I make, I want to win it - and this time I did. I was stunned, I just sat in front of my computer for a minute or two without moving or saying anything," confesses Sture.

InterCasino manager Ryan Hartley wasn't stunned by Sture's big win: "Rags to Riches was at nearly $200,000 when Sture won, and the game has a history of paying out around that number." Hartley commented. He also offered this tip... "Our Millionaires Club's progressive jackpot is currently at about $425,000, and we are keeping our eye out for a big winner at Millionaires Club very, very soon."

What will the lucky Danish jackpot winner be doing with his winnings? "I don't plan any big changes in my life. I will invest most of the money that I've won, but I think I'll be taking some of it to buy a new black and chrome Harley Davidson this coming summer.
