Thunderbolt Casino Player Hits Two Jackpots in One Session, Wins R529,558

A 32-year-old nurse from Saldhana in the Western Cape is “completely over the moon” after hitting not one but TWO jackpots at South Africa’s Thunderbolt Casino. “Cindy” won a total of R529,557.98 playing the Storm Lords and Plentiful Treasure slots from Realtime Gaming.

Cindy said she's not 100% sure yet what she'll do with all the winnings but is certain that some will be donated to the animal shelter where she volunteers.

"I was completely excited and overjoyed when I hit the first jackpot," said the winner. "I was having so much fun playing Storm Lords that I continued on and what do you know, I hit ANOTHER jackpot on Plentiful Treasure!"

Storm Lords features two young warriors known as The Storm Riders. They first appeared in Chinese comic books which were adapted into two Hong Kong films and a Taiwanese television series.

When players hit the Gold Coin feature in Plentiful Treasure, like Cindy did, they know they're going to win either the Grand, Major, Minor or Mini jackpot. They're given 12 coins to click on to reveal symbols for each jackpot.  Three matching symbols wins the jackpot.

"My husband also plays at Thunderbolt sometimes and now he is really adamant to get so lucky and hit two jackpots in a row, just like I did!"

Cindy had this advice for other players: "Don't underestimate your luck!  For a long time, I always only heard stories about such lucky players and now I'm one of them."
