Sky Bingo Player Wins Whopping £1.3 Million

A chiropodist from Wales, Chrissie Johnson is the latest to become a Sky Bingo millionaire. Barely a year after she joined the network, she won £1,346,155 by playing Chests of Plenty, which is one of Playtech’s video slots. The gambling operator offers an eclectic mix of bingo games and slots, including several that carry a progressive jackpot.

Slots and Bingo Games Go Hand in Hand

Online bingo rooms are becoming increasingly popular and Sky Bingo offers its members a chance to play some of the many popular versions. Video slots were a relatively recent addition to make the collection of games even more appealing and provide more options to players. Chests of Plenty is a five-reel video game that has a pirate theme and carries a progressive jackpot.

Chrissie won £300,000 after she spun the reels for less than 20 minutes. The progressive jackpot was then added to the £300,000, giving her winnings of a whopping £1,346,155. Chests of Plenty happens to be one of Chrissie’s favorite slots provided by Playtech, with its amazing graphics and friendly gaming atmosphere. Playtech developed the game for its bingo division. The same customer base that enjoys bingo’s social nature finds this game extremely appealing.

The Biggest Winning Bingo Prize Pot

The whopping 7-digit figure is an amount that will change the lucky winner’s life forever and it also represents a major milestone for Sky Bingo. It is the biggest prize that has ever been awarded to a bingo player. The success that Johnson has experienced is expected to spread like wildfire throughout the entire community. One of the reasons that online bingo is so popular is that players can use the chat feature to interact with each other.

It also helps that both games can be played on mobile devices. It is certainly not a coincidence that over the last couple of years, there has been a 25% increase in the bingo industry in the United Kingdom.
