Gambling Stories
I do not know about you, but when I refer to gambling stories, I always like to look at the positive picture—the huge casino gambling winners and jackpot winners, if you will—which inspire me to achieve a huge win of my own. Obviously, I know that in most cases, these huge wins from gambling stories are based purely on luck, but the fact is, it gives me hope. And with hope comes great motivation that pushes me in several projects of life. In terms of gambling, it is mainly an entertainment outlet for me, one I enjoy taking part in regardless of the expense. Once I save up for fun—such as others save for a 5-star dinner—for me, it's the games, graphics, features, lights, and more. Via online casinos, tons of perks like bonuses, comps, security await. For this reason, I'll share some positive gambling stories and winners—but maybe a couple bad ones at the end.
Biggest Jackpot Winner in History
Gloria C. Mackenzie from Florida is the biggest winner in history, at least to my recollection. She won via lottery—pure luck too, with astronomical odds against it, much higher than any casino game. Millions compete, potentially diluting prizes. But 84-year-old Gloria claimed $590 million Powerball! Sweeter when risking just $10—and online casinos make it easier!
Mega Fortune Jackpot
This stands as the biggest online slot jackpot ever, in Guinness World Records: a 40-year-old from Helsinki, Finland, won €17.8 million on Mega Fortune in 2013. Millions in Euros! Though weaker now, still preferable to dollars for me. Multiple big payouts from it. US slots grow faster with more players—or pay frequently; either way, fine by me.
Bovada Big Winners
Among USA-friendly casinos we recommend, Bovada Casino—our multi-channel gem (sportsbook, poker, casino, racebook)—delivers winners:
- Richard M. from NM won $12,066 on Paradise Dreams .
- Glenn K. from CT won $7,954 on Caribbean Holdem Poker (not just slots!).
- Patricia C. from VA won $7,937 on Caesar's Empire.
- Rose Marie M. from TX won $7,780 on Rain Dance .
- Laurel K. from CA won $5,556 on Honey to the Bee .
- David R. from WI won $5,536 on popular Cleopatra's Gold .
- Timothy F. from PA won $5,280 on Reel Blood.
- Gina P. from OR won $5,155 on Double Double Bonus Poker (video poker!).
- Scott G. from AZ won $4,467 on Rain Dance.
