Tuesday 9th February 2010
One lucky online bingo player from Yorkshire is celebrating this week after taking home over £34,000 following a win off a single ten pence ticket at BuckyBingo.co.uk.
The Bradford-based player uses the pseudonym ‘Shell15’ and is now richer to the tune of £34,115 after hitting the jackpot available in the Alderney-licensed site’s Buckingham Room.
“It's a great day for all of us,” said Matt Welch, Head Of Online Gaming for Manchester-based operator Buckingham Bingo Limited.
“It's a fantastic win. The first we've had from such a low stake and it proves that the big money is achievable even for just a few pennies.
“A big league bingo prize like this might seem even more surprising as our virtual rooms are not full of thousands of people. Players play there because we manage to create the same comfortable community feeling as we do at our actual venues. Our site is breaking all records for player satisfaction. So, 'Shell15' is more than welcome to break into a bottle of champagne and enjoy the winnings.”
