Winnipeg Player Happy After $447K Win!

Congratulations Matthew!

PlayNow.com member Matthew M.’s day started fairly normally. He had just gotten home from work and was laying down for a nap when he decided to play for a little while.

He noticed the Notre Dame mobile game had a large progressive jackpot, and he decided to try that game for the first time using a PlayNow freeplay he’d recently received.

Matthew’s third spin garnered him three “chest” symbols to trigger the bonus round, where he could pick from a series of wooden chests to reveal the prizes inside. Eventually one of his picks revealed the Diamond symbol, which awarded him the game’s progressive jackpot. He won an incredible $447,384.48 – all on a $6 spin!

“When I won, I jumped right up from the bed. I told my parents right away and they couldn’t believe it,” said Matthew when picking up his prize cheque.

“I tried to log into my phone to show them my balance, but at first I couldn’t do it. I was shaking so much I couldn’t tap the right buttons,” he laughed.

“So not only did I not have a nap, I couldn’t sleep at all for the rest of the day!”

Matthew explained that he likes that PlayNow wins are paid out quickly, and that he knows the site is secure. He also likes that he can buy his favourite lottery games on the site.

Matthew plans to put most of his winnings toward buying a house. “I never dreamed I’d be able to afford a home right now. It’s surreal.”

Congratulations Matthew!
