A 62-year-old grandmother of 16 is today celebrating a £44,958.59 win at her local Gala Bingo hall in Bexleyheath. While the lady in question does not wish to be named she is said to be in absolute shock at the size of the win and is already thinking of ways to spend her new-found wealth. She won the rollover jackpot while playing the High Five Jackpot game and immediately the place was in uproar!
Bingo has been one of the main online gambling successes in the UK over the last two or three years and even though there is a worldwide recession and money is tight in many areas of the country, 2009 looks like being another great year. This is a game where jackpots do change lives with many winners taking home in excess of £100,000 both online and off-line.
The bingo community of yesteryear has long gone and online bingo in particular is seeing something of a resurgence over the last few years. Promotions, discounts, free games, rollover jackpots and bingo chat rooms are all part of the still developing online bingo arena. While there are still many big jackpots in the off-line sector there is no doubt that the ability to play from your home any time of the day or night has proved too much of a pull for many who are making the switch from local bingo halls to the Internet.
