The reason online gambling fans flock to Casino.com is not only because of its easy-to-remember name, but because of its superb casino games, promotions and lucrative payouts. Just ask Aussie housewife Lisa, who recently won $74,070 - by accident.
As the story goes, Lisa, a 43-year-old mother of two from the Australian city of Melbourne, was bored one afternoon and decided to play online at Casino.com using her play money account. However, she accidentally logged onto her husband's real money account.
Happily unaware of her error, Lisa proceeded to play her favourite online slots game at Casino.com, where she was only too happy to play the maximum bet on each and every spin. And this carried on for about 20 minutes, until she won a mini-jackpot of $920.
Still unaware that she has was playing for real money, Lisa decided to play on which turned out to be a great decision because 40 minutes later she won another jackpot, only this time one for a whopping $74,070. And only then did it dawn on Lisa what she had done.
Once she had calmed down enough, she phoned her husband to tell him what she had done. And although he was initially shocked at her mistake - which could have cost him all of his playing funds - he congratulated his wife for making the highly profitable mistake.
And Lisa is very philosophical about her good fortune, as she explained to Casino.com staff. 'I definitely won't be quitting my job as a mom. This is something I want to do no matter what. Having the extra money though will certainly make things easier for us now.'
