Your Input Please UnF*king believable 102k win on a 0.40 spin! william hill

a bit over 260.000 x

take that bonanza
You saying Bonanza can't do that??? I'll have you know BGT said it can.

Plus it has an unlimited multiplier. Can "Chain Reactors Super Trails" boast the same? NO!! :p
 
I know it's easy to say from my perspective, but I think I'd be almost 'done' if that happened.

I'd imagine Asidzareef will be very protective of those funds and no way start splurging out thousands. As a fellow low roller there's no way I'd botch this 'life chance', at all. I'm almost certain he'd be more than content to carry on with the occasional small deposit and not get carried away trying to emulate other high rolling heroics. That's the impression I get :cool:

I'd just low roll for the rest of my days if it happened to me :). Wouldn't need any major wins ever again.

In 2006 I met a lady in her 50's on one of the Fortune Lounge organized casino cruises who had won around €750K on Major Millions on the minimum bet, i think it is €3.00. Naturally, FL invited her to the cruise to show her off to all the other players and get some more marketing exposure.

One evening I was chatting to her exactly about the bet sizes after her win. She said that prior to her win her bets were usually €0.50 - €1.50, and only played Major Millions twice before hitting the jackpot. However, she conceded that it was rather tough to stay on the small bet sizes and she had lost a few times €5 - €10K in one session with bets going as high as €50. But she didn't seem too much worried, rather content that she could afford to lose that kind of money. Go figure how we gamblers sometimes think.

Not saying the OP will follow that route but it certainly is a challenge to withstand the desire to have a punt at higher bets.

I definitely could I lost over 1000 on Thunderfist in 2012 on 15£ spins...I've never bet close since then. I did bet 7.50 a spin @ stars last year but balance allowed it. I'm terrified of betting big. Depends on if he is or not.
 
Thanks all for the congrats!

For those who are worrying i will lose it all, i don't drink so no chance of spinning away my life as i'm able to keep a balanced head.

I think i'm pretty safe documents wise as i deposit mostly from my bank account and they can see the source of wealth if they wish, i never reverse usually but don't know what possessed me( i think the 3 day pending period)

Out of the 200 i reversed, i had withdrawn 180 straight away n was just having fun for a day with 20 quid n kept going up n down (withdrew another 75) and left 20 again, at 34 quid i started this game and it was going well as i jumped to 64 in 67 spins n the jackpot was on the 68th spin

I will not be wasting the money as I know it would take me 5 years with 0 spending whatsoever to have this kind of money at 22 grand a year (less after taxes n ni), originally i had left a grand to enjoy slots but i didnt enjoy even doing 1 pound spins as i thought i would lose it so i withdrew another 750 n left 300 to do 20p spins. This is enough for a month for me

As most reps here would probably attest, i never deposit more than 20 and 90% of my deposits are only a tenner

Thanks again for all the best wishes and I thank you all for wishing me!

I couldn't agree more, i have never enjoyed losing 7.5 a spin and i dont think i ever will, at many times i got my balance over 1300-2600 previously but i still spun the same 0.27 on doa that i was doing to meet the wagering even though it took longer. So i'm content with 0.2p bets, only reason i was doing 0.4p bets on this slot was because i had made 2 withdrawals from my tenner of 180 and 75 so last 20 i thought i'd go crazy with 0.4p bets (that's as high as i go)
 
Wait a moment though, are you telling me it is conceivable that those stories of players depositing a tenner, opening a jackpot slot for the first time and spinning at 0,25 while sitting at the toilet when the 5 million euro jackpot comes are actually true? This certainly reads similar :D Amazing to see it actually happen to someone here and not to some unknown scandinavian punter. And great to hear you seem to be very level-headed, to this day I cringe when I think about that guy who got a 10,000x win in DoA and some time later wrote a post about having massive debts and life in ruins :/

They shouldn't ask for source of wealth on this (doesn't mean they won't), however, I would print your screenshot of the win out, and also your account page on williamhill showing your deposits and withdrawals. You bank is almost guaranteed to either freeze your account, the funds coming in, or want to speak to you, if 3 transactions all come in same time, all for over £10k. Easy enough to sort, a lot easier than casinos make it, but just thought I would make you aware in advance, in case you didn't know.

Thanks! didn't think of all the above, already have a screenshot of the win plus the pending withdrawals, will do deposit/withdrawal now
 
silly Q, but dont people just WD $9,999.00 and avoid any unnecessary bank issues?

In UK its no big deal. Bank might question where money came from but soon as you prove to them then all is okay.

But lol i think the Banks would question say 10 payments the same day of 9.9k more than they would a single payment of 100k
 
Money go into your account they wont bat an eyelid for that - especially as they can see it coming from WH. Leaving it is where you get the ML checks

Only 54 likes is pitiful. If I got such a win with a like rate for my win I would move on to a free play llike facebook where such a big win would attract thousands of likes.

But in your position I would add it to my best interests and just play at the same values that I played before.
But you don't seem to be a guy that needs these type of posts?

Banks are supposed to do reports on ANY unusual transactions on over £10k. If they see if coming from a solicitor, the report will say 'came from known solicitor', but even then they can ask for proof. Happened to a friend who got £52k from a house sale in Feb. Froze the account completely until he took documents down to prove where it came from (with Lloyds).
These will raise eyebrows and should be flagged up, so best be prepared.Gambling transactions will be given extra scrutiny due to the fact you can money launder through them without too much difficulty.
 
What a fantastic win for you. Love it!
I’ve played this game for years at various places (skyvegas, coral etc) and for many years the jackpot only became active at stakes of £1 or higher. So happy for you that this wasn’t the case at WH! X x

It’s hard paying rent each month so to get your own place AND have the rent money as cash in ur pocket is simply amazing.
How good will it be to make a cash offer on a property and say “there you go- paid in full “ x ??

Your friend must have had other activity to make them suspicious, a number of things can trigger a ML check. Using your example for one, the whole conveyancing system would grind to a halt if it was commonplace, seeing as simultaneous completions mean much larger funds than that need to be mutually transacted in a matter of hours. I can tell you with certainty that 50k entering an account even in personal banking terms is nothing, the only thing that would "raise eyebrows" would be if someone came in and paid that in cash. I bet you anything the only contact the OP has from his Bank is perhaps a call from the branch Investment Adviser looking to do a bit business.
