Carol Heads To The Tropics With Her $207K Slotland Casino Jackpot Win
November 23rd, 2014One lucky players hits a near record-breaking progressive jackpot at Slotland Casino and decides to head to her own Treasure Island.
We love it when someone wins big on slots. Gives us hope every time we head to play on a progressive jackpot casino game.
And whilst $207,008 may not sound like a lot to players who are use to reading about the multi-million hitting games like Mega Fortune and Mega Moolah, to Carol it changed her world.
In fact, one of the reasons she loves playing at Slotland is because, though the jackpots are smaller, they hit often. Barely a couple of months goes by without one happy player hitting a life-changing amount.
After all, how much do you really need to be able to pay off those bills and head off for a trip of a life-time?

A casino site wide jackpot on Treasure Island
For those of you who haven’t read our Slotland mobile casino review yet, you should know a couple of things about this unique gambling site.
One, all of their casino games are all unique to them. They create them using their own game development team in Vancouver, test them thoroughly, and then release for all to play online and on mobile.
This is important in two ways.
First, you won’t find these games anywhere else. And second, they have one big jackpot that’s shared across multiple slots that they purposely set to hit often.
The almost record-breaking jackpot win
This jackpot hits multiple times a year, generally averaging at around $135,000 to $180,000 at a time.
So you can see that Carol’s win at $207,008 surpasses that by quite a bit.
“We had a couple of big wins over the summer – one of them really big,” said Slotland manager Michael Hilary. “We were kind of hoping we’d have a big jackpot winner during our 16th birthday celebrations last month. But great for Carol that it kept building for a couple more weeks!”
In fact it almost came close to beating the second highest Slotland jackpot win of $207,241 won by Henry W. when he was playing on the popular slot Treasure Box, back in November 2011.
The record for the biggest jackpot ever won at this mobile casino site is still held by Sinclair U, an American dad who won $266,800 on the fair-themes and nostalgia bringing Carnival slot.
How she won on the Treasure Island slot
The way Carol won her treasure wasn’t easy. The path to pirate glory never is.
Based loosely around the classic tale by the same name, Treasure Island mobile slot is a 5 real, 19 payline pirate themed casino game.
One of the more recent slot releases, it’s a fairly simple real money online slot. You get the pirate symbol as the wild, that doubles any wins, and a graphically interesting click me bonus game when you hit three scatters.
Loving the far simpler slots usually, Carol decided to give Treasure Island a chance, figuring she could always switch to her favourite and more traditional slots, like Double Luck and Fruit Mania, if Treasure Island wasn’t paying out.
One of the real draws for her, of course, is that moment when you hit 5 of a kind Pirate Captain symbol. If you do, you’ll either win 1,000x your line bet or… the jackpot.
So what differentiates between the jackpot winners and everyone else? The fact that in order to win this jackpot prize, Carol would have been betting at least a total of $20 a spin.
Switching games clearly paid off for our lucky gambler.
Heading south for the winter
Carol knows that she should be practical with her huge slot win. It’s not everyday you get a massive lump sum of money sent straight to your account.
So she’s got a list of a few boring, but necessary, things she’ll spend the money on.
For one, there’s a few bills she’ll pay off straight away, because why not? Her kitchen has been due for an upgrade for a while, so she’s going to go shopping for appliances as soon as she has a chance.
But our girl Carol isn’t all practicality. This win affords her to do plenty more than pay a few bills and a new blender.
Practical, generous and fun
She’s in fact planning a trip to Florida Keys and Hawaii to enjoy some winter sun, something she wouldn’t have been able to do without the win.
However, showing that gamblers aren’t all selfishness, and a good deed done is twice the reward, she’s also giving a little something back to help her karma on her next win.
“I want to make a charitable donation too,” she said. “It’s just so hard to decide which one. I’m super excited to have won and still can’t really believe it.”
A healthy mix of practicality, fun and generosity? And a gambler at that? Here’s a lady after our own hearts.
Congratulations Carol, a huge win truly deserved.
