Slot player's risk doubles his winnings

(PRESS RELEASE) -- The colors of the flag of Texas represent bravery, loyalty and purity. If there was ever any doubt about the fearlessness of Texans, then Miami Club Casino player Gerry M. from Dallas has laid them all to rest after an astonishing win on 3 May.

Gerry had just opened his Miami Club account on 15 March and had only played a few times, mostly on progressive jackpot slot games. He’d played casino games a lot but Miami Club’s games from WGS were new to him.

On 3 May, after a fruitless 20 minutes or so playing Mega Money Mine, Gerry switched to the new Ultimate 10X Wild three-reel, part of the WGS WILDX series. Betting the max $5 coin and three credits ($15 total), Gerry placed 40 bets and had a few wins. Then, on his 41st spin, with just under $400 in his account, Gerry received a single '$' symbol alongside two '10X WILD' symbols — a result that multiplied his 45x win by 100. His $225 win was suddenly a $22,500 windfall.

Then it was time to put the Texan’s bravery to a real test. Ultimate 10X gives players the opportunity to gamble on any win. They spin a wheel and either end up with nothing or twice what they've already won. Gerry had $22,500 and he bravely hit the Gamble button. He landed the win and his $22,500 doubled to $45,000.

"It takes some nerve to stake that kind of wager on a double or nothing, we don't see that very often," commented Linda Hernandez, manager of Miami Club. "That's the type of moment where you wish there was a way to have everyone stand around and collectively hold their breath . . . then cheer when the result is positive!"

Gerry was quite relaxed when speaking about his courageous gamble: "Sure there were a few seconds when time kind of stopped, waiting for the wheel to stop spinning. I knew there was a lot on the line but the way I look at it, it's not my money, it's the house money. If it works, it works, and I've had a good day. If it doesn't I just don't tell anyone! Fortunately, this was my day! I'll take out some and keep playing, this place has been good for me so far!"
