When Taryn Taylor of Arkansas stepped out to celebrate her birthday she could never have guessed that a $20 gamble could be so successful. She visited the GoldStrike Tunica Casino in Mississippi with her best friend to celebrate her special day, a day which just got better and better!
Sliding down to the Wheel of Fortune slot machine she slipped in a $20 bill and began spinning reels at a rate of 25c a spin. It was not long before she hit the jackpot but it took Miss Tyler some time to realise exactly how much she had won. A $20 gamble had suddenly turned into a $900,000 win and she was literally on cloud nine. Quite what she will do with the money remains to be seen but 2008 could not have ended on a better note for this young lady.
Many slot fans have been pulled towards the Wheel of Fortune Progressive Jackpot game which is a network available throughout the US and reported to have a $14 million prize pool which is growing by the day. The exposure created by the $900,000 will is sure to see more and more punters flocking to this network which will push the prize pool higher and the jackpot back towards the skies!
