Norwegian Student Hits Record-Breaking Betsson Jackpot

A Norwegian student is still stunned after having won the largest jackpot ever to be paid out by an internet casino in Europe.

The 20-year-old from Hordaland in Norway logged in to his casino account at Betsson Casino to take advantage of 10 free spins as part of the casino's promotion. On Friday night, the incredibly lucky student hit the casino's jackpot of €11,736,367.92 whilst playing the casino's exciting slot game Mega Fortune.

In an interview with Betsson Casino, the winner of this unbelievable jackpot explained his utter disbelief when he saw the enormous sum of money pop up on the screen. His immediate reaction was to call his brother and his friends to inform them of his incredible luck and he stayed awake all night in sheer excitement thinking about it, but he has still not decided what he wants to do with the money he has won at the online casino.

Thomas Bertilsson, PR Manager for Betsson Sweden expressed his enormous pleasure at being able to hand out this record-breaking sum of money to one of the casino's players, especially considering that the player did not bet any of his own money whilst playing at the online casino.

Taxation laws in Norway unfortunately mean that nearly 30% of this enormous jackpot will go to the State, but the tremendously lucky casino player will nonetheless have a lot more sleepless nights trying to figure out what he wants to do with the rest of the money he has won at the online casino.

However, envious players need not worry. There are already plenty of other opportunities to become a millionaire in an instant at a range of online casinos. Check out Beach Life at Europa Casino, Hall of Gods at Betsson Casino and Mega Moolah at Spin Palace Casino to try your luck today!
