Omni Casino Player Wins Two Progressive Jackpots On Valentines Day Worth $156,518.

(Strovolos, Cyprus) - A player who spent six months playing in the practice mode of Omni Casino®'s online software won two progressive jackpots totaling US$156,518.90 in his second day playing for real money on February 14, 2002.

The Omni Casino® player with the Internet handle 'Mark' hit a Straight and Royal Flush for US$15,220.98 and US$137,435.93 respectively on Spice Island Stud Poker. 'Mark' hit the Royal Flush while waiting to celebrate his earlier Straight Flush won two hours prior.

"After my first stroke of luck I called a friend to share the exciting news; then made dinner reservations for that night," recalls 'Mark'. "Two hours later, I poured myself a drink and sat at the multi-player Spice Island Poker table. My eyes nearly popped out of my head when I saw the Royal Flush and my account balance over US$156K. This was truly a Valentine's Day I'll never forget."

The win by 'Mark' brings the 2002 US$100K+ progressive jackpot win count to three - already set to eclipse last year's mark. Ten US$100K+ jackpots were claimed in 2001. In total, more than US$5.5 million was awarded on over 17,000 Jackpot Mania wins - averaging over 47 winners daily.

'ActionS', a long-time Omni Casino® player won a US$215,544.38 jackpot on a Royal Flush at Omni's multiplayer Spice Island Poker tables on November 9, 2001, the third largest Jackpot Mania prize to date.

Jackpot Mania also is home to the world record for largest progressive jackpot ever won at an online casino. On September 3, 2001, 'BOBO' claimed US$414,119.00 at The Sands of the Caribbean® Online Casino on a Rags to Riches US$1.00 slot.
