New Online Gamer Wins £90,000 Jackpot

A Lancashire-based online gaming novice has pocketed £90,000 on William Hill Vegas within 7 days of opening his first online betting account. The latest win boosts the company's recent payouts from £750,000 to a total of £900,000 - all in the last five weeks.

Roofer Edward Walsh opened a William Hill online account on the 15^th July to pass time while his girlfriend and children went off on an exotic holiday leaving him to work at home alone. What he didn't expect was his 10p per spin on the slot game Pharaoh's Treasure to land him something more than just 'A' holiday --instead, he took home a massive £89,407 windfall!

"I'd only played a couple of times since opening the account, I couldn't believe I'd won such an amount of money when the jackpot sign popped up!" Although the 40-year-old amateur body builder is still relatively new to the online world, when it comes to spending money, he is no novice. He took his mates for an all-night long bash on the very same evening he won the jackpot. "I'm going to use the money to pay off my mortgage, then I'll take some time off work and go for a holiday with my girlfriend and kids as soon as they are back in the country!"
