IRINGION Wins $116,828 Progressive Jackpot On Wild Heart At Slotland Online Casino.

slotland src On July 19, Slotland casino had the pleasure of announcing its 6th jackpot winner of the year, when IRINGION from Massachusetts won $116,828 by pulling down a Royal Flush on Wild Heart! This variation of Double Joker video poker offers large progressive jackpot if you bet max on ALL lines ($15). Lucky jackpot winner IRINGION told this story:

I am a pretty new player at Slotland, having signed up about a year ago. I guess you can say that I am a pretty simple player, as I don't really jump around between games very much. Frankly, I almost didn't join Slotland, because I am not a real slots fan; I actually prefer online poker and card games. But when I saw that Slotland also offered three different poker-style games, I thought I should at least try them out.

I got even more excited about Slotland after joining up and playing their card games. Although I like the straight Jacks or Better games, both the Wild Heart and the Striking Sevens games were also fun, so I found myself going between these three games generally. I also read the newsletter each month (I am always trying to get some extra bonuses, which is easy with the newsletter!) and it seemed to me to be the slot machines that hit the jackpot, not the card games. I just figured that there are more slots and players probably play the slots more often than the card games, which is why I see so many slot machine jackpots. I did recall Striking Sevens hitting recently, so I really was not expecting the jackpot by playing the card games!

I have found the Slotland card games to be quite loose. I try to play at least once a month (sometimes two or three times, when I have the extra time and money) and my luck had been good enough in the past to keep me coming back for more.

On this session, I really seemed to hit a groove of nice paying hands. I saw a couple of straight flushes and several four of a kinds land in my lap while playing Jacks or Better, and my original $200 bankroll had grown to over $500!

Finally, it seemed that Jacks or Better ran dry. After getting 7 straight losing hands, I figured there was nothing left for me on that machine and decided it was time to move on to another card game. I have a special silver dollar that I keep by my computer for good luck. I couldn't decide whether to play Wild Heart or Striking Sevens, so I just flipped the silver dollar, deciding that heads would take me to Wild Heart and tails would take me to Striking Sevens. It landed on heads and off I went to Wild Heart.

Now I know that my silver dollar is a lucky one! One my first deal, I received 3 queens plus junk. I held the queens and clicked the draw button, and watched with pleasure as I saw another queen and a wild card land on the middle row, for a fat $250 win on my first deal! That certainly encouraged me to continue! A few more hands and I got a pat full house across all three lines (another $75 added to my bankroll!), so I knew that my lucky silver dollar led me the right way!

Since it seemed to be going so well, I made the decision to stay with Wild Hearts until I broke $1,000 in my bankroll or got back down to $500. For the next 30 or so hands, it was a back and forth battle, with me slowly losing ground. I was down to about $600 when it happened.

I was dealt three Wild Royal Flushes, for an automatic $1,500 win! Now I knew that there were 2 wild cards in each deck, and here I am looking at Ace, King, Queen and ten of diamonds, with a wild card. I glanced at the jackpot (not a smart thing to do when you're trying to decide whether or not to keep a guaranteed $1,500 win or go for the glory!) and I just groaned inside. Do I want to reach my $1,000 bankroll goal (which I would do by simply holding all of the cards!) or go for the impossible? I knew if luck was good to me (and it had been all day), I might at least get another wild card, which would still push me over the $1,000 bankroll mark.

I must have sat there for five minutes, trying to decide which way to go. Over $116,000 was luring me to give it a try. Finally, I looked at my trusty silver dollar and decided to leave it to luck. A heads would mean I go for the jackpot, and a tails means I cash in $1,500. I flipped the coin and wouldn't you know it? Heads came up!

So I dropped my wild cards (with my mind screaming that I was crazy to throw away $1,500!) and went for it. When the cards came up, I will never forget seeing that beloved jack of diamonds fall on the bottom line! And can you believe it? I also DID get another wild card on the middle line! Kind of like extra frosting on an amazing cake!

The rest, as they say, is history! I even left my computer on all night so I could look at it again in the morning! What a beautiful sight, something I only dreamed of until now! Don't even ask me what I plan to do with all of that money, because I haven't even got that far in my thinking. Really, I never expected it to be me to win the jackpot, so I never really thought very hard about what to do with so much money. But don't worry I am sure I will figure it out!


Although there are happy winners every day at $lotland, it's always exciting and encouraging to encounter yet another really big winner! Our congratulations go out to IRINGION on this huge win!
