I personally go for the sports betting when playing online but there has been a lot of buzz lately around all types of big slot prizes. I might have to actually break-down and give them a try if prizes like this keep being won!
When the Grand Slam of Slots was announced by Microgaming months ago it had raised a lot of hype. The center piece of that hype was a first place prize of €1 million. It was the first time ever that a seven figure first prize was being awarded in an online tournament. The Grand Slam of Slots has lived up to the hype. Players at Microgaming online casinos flocked to qualifier events vying for a coveted seat to the final. Then on November 2 it was all over and the online casino industry had a new millionaire.
In a press release Microgaming has announced the name of the winner. The winner is Stefan from South London who played the event under the alias Pattoned. Since he entered the tournament through a €2 qualifier from Ladbrokes Casino he is known as a Ladbrokes player and has done that online casino proud. Speaking about the win Pattoned said, “I’m ecstatic to have won and can’t quite believe it yet. I’m absolutely stunned! What will I do with the money? Who knows; we’ll have to wait and see! ” Pattoned demonstrated that online casino players are responsible gamblers when asked if he would quit working now that he had received this windfall. Pattoned replied, “I’m not thinking about leaving work at all, I absolutely love what I do and want to continue it for as long as I can”.
