Looks like a paid editorial to me, but still a decent win.Quote:

Its definitely a paid article. Good work from their PR people. Its a stereotypical misleading headline though. If you read it and thought he's donating the lot, don't get sucked in to reading the article (like me!).
Definitely stinks of 'paid editorial'. I didn't think Daily Mirror would be that desperate to do things like this really, surely breaking a few Google guidelines there if they care for such things.
The fact that there are affiliate links in the post should be enough to tell you what it is!
I emailed The Mirror asking for a rate card, they seem very clued up on Affiliate marketing and it seems they prefer to do editorials where they get a cut of commission too.
Bad form. At this point why doesn't the mirror just go ahead and put a nice big menu heading "Online Casinos" and take it from there.

Good call.. Didn't even noticed that until you guys pointed it out.
The exact sum he won is £570,407, and a player from Sweden more likely will play with Euro instead of Swedish Kronor.
As is so often the case in life, chance plays a crucial role.
£570,407 are nearly exact 800.000 Euro.
A nice round sum for the right moment to hit the jackpot.
Isn't it?
What a pity, that the player remain anonymous, and that I am too stupid to find the £570,407 "Siberian Storm" jackpot on JackpotGraphs (http://www.jackpotgraphs.com).

Its the shared IGT Megajackpots one. It can be won on a few different games including Siberian Storm, Cluedo and Cleopatra.

Someone is sleeping with updates or something is weird.
No other possibilities.
I have seen so many fake stuff the last decade in this industry, that I learned to ask as long as there is an answer to open questions.

I double checked against the live value in Cleopatra at Mr Green 5 minutes ago and the current value on Casino Listings matches, so we have the right info and the one you have there is wrong. I know we had to update our IGT feed reader in the middle of March as the old URL we had stopped working. I guess that the owner of the Jackpot Graphs site has not updated their feed and so has stale data.
Will probably fool a lot of people thoughQuote:

It's clearly labelled "Advertorial" so I don't see a problem. Probably cost them a fortune but they'll probably get a good return ;)
Most people don't even read that. I guess we'll see this more. This are the stories people want to read: people playing some cents, winning big prizes and setting up their own businesses...Quote:
