29 year old blacksmith Omar Basseo from Switzerland became one of the richest 29-year-olds in the world after collecting a shocking $8,000,000 from InterCasino's Millionaires Club progressive jackpot slot machine.
With the world’s largest online jackpot the young factory workers life turned upside down forever. He has never travelled 50km from home and now suddenly he is in London doing promotional interviews.
Basseo was said to be practically speechless as he collected his wins from model Sophie Anderton, but managed to say: "This is amazing. I am in total shock. It will completely change my life. I still cannot believe it as I never win anything and this is the first time I have played. I keep expecting to wake up and find this is a dream. I don't know what I will do with the money but I am looking forward to treating my family to a really great summer holiday, it will be the first time many of them have flown. I enjoy being a blacksmith but I need never work again."
The Millionaires Club progressive jackpot has been re-set and is over $2 million dollars at this moment.
