Funny thing that mega fortune and hall of god jackpots both dropped almost in a row .
Andy I would love to see you in a Mankini
Will we see pictures? I know it's still hot down there so don't disappoint us now
ok my fault. i´ve seen the news about the hall of gods jp was on 26th october 2012
so the JP dropped exactly one year later
UK press reporting that winner was a North Sea trawlerman, married with one child and a regular player at BetVictor.
Had been plinking away for about half-an-hour when the jackpot hit, but the article didn't say how much he had staked.
It tells you here:
A SCOTS trawlerman has netted a £5.4million online gambling jackpot from a stake of just 20p.
Not funny if you created an email campaign last Wednesday about the jackpots being 12 million, then you had to edit it on Thursday to say 8 million, then you told your content team they were being silly when they said they shouldn't schedule the email to go out on Sunday in case the Hall of Gods jackpot dropped.
My exact words were "Don't be soft, what are the chances of that happening on that specific day, if it drops I'll run along the seafront in a mankini"
They are now looking online for mankinis...
Funny thing is I lost an almost identical bet a few years ago with my team at my last place. At least they let me use a bicycle!
Anyway, it wasn't won at Redbet.
It really annoys me when press releases and casinos do this. The implication is that it cost him just 20p to win several million. He may have been betting 20p per spin, but I'm damn sure he didn't hit the jackpot on the first spin.
The £5.4million jackpot is a big enough story on its own without mis-leading nonsense like this.
