Online Casino Pays Out Largest-Ever Win

Greek gambler gets fully-paid flight to London for massive win

Monday 19th May 2008



SportingBet last week went the extra mile to congratulate winning player Mr K Vasileiadis for his win on a €27 (£21) slot machine that netted him €940,966 (£748,290).

The generous casino flew Mr Vasileiadis to London, along with five of his friends and family, to toast his winnings and of course receive them. After, the lucky group were taken to lunch.

“This is a huge win and I am delighted for Mr. Vasileiadis,” said Sportingbet’s CEO. “He is a loyal and valued customer and I am sure he will enjoy spending the money.”

SportingBet was among the first online gaming companies in the world, and remains one of the largest today. The website is used by over 30 countries and celebrates its 10th birthday this year.

Mr Vasileiadis said that although the winnings will make a pleasant difference to his life he has no plans to leave his job. However, his fiancé said that their wedding would now likely be bigger and sooner than planned.
