Recently a online casino player from Finland made a 50 cent bet at Blackjack Ballroom and little did he know that his little bet was about to become a life changing win. Klaus E. made the bet the reels aligned and then the screen lit up and bells on the machine started chiming as all of a sudden he was $5.5 million dollars richer.

"When I saw 5,556,753 flash on my screen, I thought it was a U.S. phone number. It couldn't be a jackpot, I must be mistaken. So I just got up from my table, went outside to clear my head, and then came back in again for another look ... and noticed $5.5 million sitting in my casino account."

This was no phone number and he has made online gambling history as the winner of one of the largest jackpot payouts ever. "I got a phone call from Casino Rewards support who were very reassuring and helpful, and the next thing I knew I was on a plane to Australia to pick up my winning cheque!

"In Sydney, the Casino Rewards team took me to the wildlife park, the aquarium and a restaurant by the Opera House. The highlight of my trip? Apart from collecting my enormous cheque, it was having my photo taken with a koala."
