MICROGAMING'S G.S.O.S. WON
6 November 2009
Million Euro competition won at Betway
One of Ladbrokes Casino.com's online players is a
million euros richer this week following the completion
of the Microgaming One Million Euros Grand Slam of Slots
competition which was concluded on November 2nd at 8pm
Central European Time.
Stefan from South London
started a new life after winning the massive jackpot in
what is being claimed as the richest online slots
tournament the Internet has ever seen.
The high
profile Grand Slam of Slots tournament boasted a 1.3
Million Euro prize pool with a first prize being of 1
Million Euros (see previous InfoPowa reports). There was
also 300 000 Euros worth of additional prizes given
away.
In total, 482 people walked away from the
Grand Slam of Slots tournament with winnings.
Entry into the Grand Slam of Slots was strictly limited
to just 8 700 people worldwide, playing on Microgaming-powered
online casinos across the planet. To gain entry into the
Grand Slam of Slots, players entered satellite Freeroll
tournaments.
The lucky players who won seats into
the main event played on the popular Lara Croft Tomb
Raider slot game. Players started with 9 000 coins and
were able to boost their chances of winning with three
add-ons and unlimited re-buys at 20 Euros each.
The limited number of players combined with the high
number of major guaranteed prizes meant all players were
in with a good chance of walking away from the Grand
Slam of Slots substantially richer.
Charlie
Goodenough, Head of Marketing, Ladbrokescasino.com said:
“This tournament was always going to be exciting with
one million Euros up for grabs and it is a great honour
to be involved in creating the first online slot
tournament millionaire. The Tomb Raider game is one of
our most popular games because it is simple yet fun to
play. It is part of a portfolio of over 450 thrilling
games including numerous variants of roulette, blackjack
and Slots.”
The tournament started on Thursday
the 22nd of October 2009 at 17:00 GMT and ran for 9 days
across the Microgaming licensee network.
The
tournament ended on Monday the 2nd of November when
Pattoned took down the jackpot.
