Jackpot Hits Home! Patricia G. Wins $54,762.94 Playing LotsaLoot At Grand Hotel Casino.
Patricia G. won $54,762.94 progressive jackpot playing LotsaLoot Slot at Grand Hotel online casino on June 29, 2004. "I also want to go see family in America and have also planned to see my brother in USA whom I haven't seen in 20 years AND we are meeting in Las Vegas(!) because he hopes some of this jackpot luck will run off onto him!" said the winner. LotsaLoot is a very popular Microgaming progressive slot machine game that is now available in two versions - the classic 3 reel slot and an advanced 5 reel, 20 payline game with enhanced winning opportunities. The recent winner Patricia G answered the following questions of a Jackpot Madness manager:Did anything unusual happen the day that you hit the jackpot?
It was 6a.m and I couldn't sleep, so I went on line to play $35 in Hotel Grand Casino.
What did you do when you realized you'd hit the jackpot?
I was down to $5.00 and convinced I was finished in two more "pulls". I took a sip of coffee and wasn't even looking at the screen when the whole thing lit up! YOU WON THE JACKPOT with bells ringing. I sat there, no one home, too early in the morning to telephone anyone and I stared at the screen and then began crying!
How will you spend your winnings?
I have just retired and my pension is not alot so I hope to help supplement my income with it. I will also be traveling the the USA to see family. You have no idea at what it means for me at this point in time to have that extra money.
How long were you playing before you hit the jackpot?
I was only playing for ten minutes. I have never won more than $1,000 before and I have been playing small time on the casinos for about ten years.
What do you do for good luck?
I live in Ireland!! The land of the leprechauns!!
What piece of advice has most helped you through life?
The way you treat others always comes full circle. Be kind and kindness will come. Be helpful and helpfulness will be repaid. Be the devil and it will also be paid back to you!
What is your dream holiday destination?
I would love to spend two weeks exploring Rome...
What do you do in your spare time?
I work with people with disabilities.
If you were stranded on a deserted island what 3 things would you take with you and why?
A case of wine, mobile phone and a man!
What is your ultimate goal in life?
To stay healthy and live in peace.
Is there anything else you would like to tell us about yourself?
Never married because I was dedicated to my career. I have worked five years in USA and 35 in Ireland with children with disabilities. The latter was my goal when I set out at 18 to get into University, first in my family, because I wanted to help other people. My entire family lives in the USA and the salary here in Ireland was really not much for teaching so that I could afford to fly over for visits. The latter is why I really appreciate this jackpot. I have just turned 60 even though I feel 30 (and act it) and have retired to enjoy the rest of my life while I am still healthy.
