For many the end of the weekend means a long work week ahead, with Friday being so far that you do not even want to think of what Monday might bring. This was not the case for a casino player from the United Kingdom, who won a prize worth a few years of salary. The reported winning amounted to £102,255 and was won at the Betsson Casino.
The Winner
The press release states that the British citizen is 25 years of age, and the game that won him the prize was Play’N Go video slot Oily Business. He went for a few spins on Sunday evening before going to sleep. It was said he played Oily Business through a mobile device and after a few spins he ‘found oil’, and got into the bonus round which gave him the opportunity of turning a mere £6.25 bet into more than £100,000. The player, who is reported to be from the city of Salisbury, could not believe the amount he had won, and shared that his respect and interest in casino games had now increased dramatically.
Over £17 Million in Prizes from Betsson Casino
Betsson has had its all in one portal since 2003, having won the 2012 ‘Casino Operator of the Year’ award from the eGR. Their games are provided by NetEnt and include video slots as well as table games, sports wagering, poker and bingo. All games follow EU jurisdiction and are auditioned by the Technical Systems Testing. The high standards and quality of the game choices is said to be one of the major reasons for the high amount of winners at Betsson.
This player is not the first to win big prizes at the Betsson Casino this year. The overall prize money given from various jackpots, some of which more than a million pounds, is £17 million.
The Game Itself
The software development agency that created the Oily Business video slot game is Play’N Go. The story of the game consists of players cast on an oil platform, with the goal of finding more of the ‘black’ gold and therefore earning more points. There are different symbols which signify different signs from the oil industry. The five reels give different combinations, which provide different chances of wins and bonuses with extra features such as free spins, bonus levels, progressive jackpots, etc.
The way the U.K. player won the big jackpot was by getting the three wild symbols needed to enter the bonus level. After that, he needed to get three of the spinning wheels perfectly in order to get the biggest jackpot. The normal prizes a player can get can be increased by entering two or three more games, in order to double or triple the initial maximum prize. The big jackpot from Oily Business and all other video slot games can be won by playing on smartphones and personal computers.
