Huge Winner at Thunderbolt Casino

James S. from Capetown hit the jackpot at South Africa’s number 1- Thunderbolt Casino earlier this month. He won R700,000 in one spin

playing the Secret Jungle slot game.

“I told my wife to pack her bags, we're going on a nice vacation!” James told the Thunderbolt customer service rep that called to congratulate him on his win.

“I couldn't believe it at first -- I even logged out and back in again just to make sure! I'm a regular at Thunderbolt. I’ve won quite a few times before -- but never such a huge amount!”

James and his wife own an event organizing company and both work from their home office. James was just taking a break and had stepped out to the back yard with his mobile phone to take a few spins on his favourite game. After a few spins with no luck he was about to log off and go back to work. Instead, he stuck with it and a few spins later hit four Warriors. There was a Wild “Idol” in the combination which tripled his payout. He placed a max bet on that spin and won just over R700,000.

"Just when you feel like you're not getting lucky,” said James, 42. “Then look what happens!"

“James isn’t the first big winner that’s told me they’d almost packed it in just before their winning spin. They’re sure glad they decided to take a few more spins!” said Casino Manager Alisa Van Der Merve. “I’m really glad it paid off for James this time!”

Secret Jungle is an Aztec-themed game with jungle animals and the treasures of the ancients spinning on its reels. Its Wild symbol is a mighty Aztec Chief that can expand to cover its entire reel and create more winning combinations. The scatter is an Aztec pyramid; three or more trigger free spins with 2X to 20X win multipliers.
