Online casino player wins Ј114,000 on April Fool’s Day
April 6, 2009, 3:04 am (2 years ago)Paul Gwilym, William Hill’s online casino player, could not believe what he is seeing when he turned 30p into Ј114,000 on April Fools’ Day. The 29-year-old was not fooled at all when he won a gigantic jackpot by playing online slots at William Hill.
All Paul spent was 30p on the game. After calling customer care to verify his bit hit, the 30p turned out to be probably the luckiest and smartest investment he ever made, unless of course, he wins bigger jackpot in the future.
'I only had around 40 minutes sleep in the early hours of Wednesday morning, I was so thrilled!' commented Paul. 'But it just seemed so incredible that I'd won, on April Fools Day of all days, so I got out of bed and called up William Hill just to check it wasn't me being a fool. But it's all true, and it's astonishing.'
William Hill spokeswoman Jennie Prest stated, 'I thought someone was trying to trick me with an April Fool when they told me our big Pharaoh’s Treasure jackpot had been won that morning, so I can give a good guess how Paul felt when he found out he'd won! We are so happy for him, it's a gigantic amount of money to win for such a small stake and we wish him every success.'
