Lucky B.C. Man Wins Over 800K Jackpot After Making $5 Wager

The largest casino jackpot ever to be won in British Columbia, Canada was recently won by 26 year-old Matthew Arseneau after he entered a contest to win a trip to Mexico being offered by PlayNow.com.

Arseneau won the huge $833,158.91 jackpot while playing the progressive slot game SuperCubes.  What makes this win notably amazing is Arseneau had only signed up at PlayNow upon hearing on a local radio station that the online casino was giving away a trip to Mexico.   He entered the contest, made the minimum $5 bet on SuperCubes and won the jackpot!

At first, Arseneau couldn’t believe he had won, but he wasn’t the only one who had a hard time believing his luck.  Apparently, Arseneau is known for being a practical jokester and his family thought he was kidding when he told them he won. Arseneau already has plans for his PlayNow winnings including a possible trip to Mexico if he doesn’t win the contest.
