Danish Slot Wiz Wins $182,915

InterCasino has announced that its latest monster ‘Rags to Riches’ Progressive Jackpot has toppled straight into the lap of Danish player ‘Gesualdo’. The 30 year-old Dane plundered the ever-popular machine for $182,915 with an investment of only $14.

Gesualdo is a roulette aficionado, but was attracted to InterCasino’s famous ‘Rags to Riches’ Machine because of its reputation for making so many players exceedingly wealthy. Finding himself ahead after one of his usual roulette sessions, he decided to invest a little more and try his hand at the spinning reels. Fourteen spins later Gesualdo had cracked the jackpot.

Gesualdo’s win, the second ‘Rags to Riches’ MEGA-Jackpot win by a Danish player so far this year, reflects the casino’s ever-expanding worldwide customer-base, as well as the increasing popularity of online gaming throughout Europe; Scandinavia, it seems, has been particularly bitten by the bug.

'It was kinda crazy,' laughs Gesualdo. 'I'd been checking out the casino, thought it was great, had a little game here and there... And then I won! I didn't dare turn the computer off the whole night in case it turned out not to be true.' Guesaldo, who cites this as his first real big win, says some of the money will go toward buying a house, and the rest will be for 'having a very nice summer'. You can't say fairer than that.
