Pokerstars Casino player becomes an instant millionaire

A lucky PokerStars Casino player won GBP 1.2 million, when Blueprint Gaming’s Jackpot King progressive jackpot landed while playing Genie Jackpots.

The freshly-minted Norwegian millionaire plans to use some of the winnings to attend future PokerStars Live events and to take family on a summer holiday.

“When the wheel stopped at the jackpot, I was for a split second sure that the software had frozen,” the winner said.

“But when the congratulations came up on the screen and the money suddenly was on my PokerStars account I could not really breathe or believe it. I was so happy.”

Matt Cole, Managing Director at Blueprint Gaming, said: “Congratulations to the lucky player and what an amazing start to the year to win such a life-changing sum of money.

“Our Jackpot King series continues to offer highly immersive games and we have plans to add exciting new releases throughout 2018.”
