韓男捐出史上最大賭場獎金 

韓國一名男子贏得該國史上最大筆的賭場大獎，折合約519萬港元，但他把獎金全數捐給一間大學。

該名男子叫Ahn Seung-Pil，現年60歲。他在韓國唯一合法的江原道賭場，贏得7.67億韓元的大獎後，決定把獎金捐給「韓國科學技術學院」。

「因為我自己的學歷不高，所以我一直夢想，可以為教育發展做點貢獻。我很高興能夠藉著這次意外的好運，實現夢想。」

他本身是個商人，在首爾開設有一間細小的製衣廠，但他在1997至98年亞洲金融風暴期間，積欠了40億韓元的債務，至今尚未還清。

「最初，我也想過用這筆獎金來清欠債務，但這麼好運得來的錢，如果能用於國家，會來得更有意義。」

61-Year-Old Rural Indiana Woman Hits One Of Bodog Casino's Biggest Jackpots Ever

May 13, 2010 

KAHNAWAKE, QC // Linda W., 61, of rural Indiana has done the unthinkable, hitting one of the biggest progressive jackpots in the history of the Bodog Online Casino! After a long day of running a landscaping business she owns with her husband she returned home to kick back, relax and play her favorite game in the Bodog Casino – Jackpot Piñatas. With just $52 left to play with, the magic happened. She won her way into the game's bonus round where she earned ten free spins, and on only her second free spin the reels came to rest showing five bulls in a row, triggering the game's progressive jackpot and earning Linda an incredible $634,000! 

Just weeks before her staggering $634,000 progressive jackpot win, Linda's husband told her "people just don't win those huge progressive jackpots." Sure enough, she proved him wrong. She admits to having won smaller amounts playing Jackpot Piñatas in the past, but nothing more than a few thousand dollars. "I like it because it's bright and it's just fun," she said when asked what it was that continued to draw her back to Jackpot Piñatas slots, adding "It's my favorite game."

For most couples in their 60's, hitting a $634,000 jackpot would lead to a very quick and comfortable re-tirement, but that's not in the cards for Linda and her husband. Self-professed workaholics, the couple plans to pay off their bills, invest in new equipment for their landscaping business and, best of all, help their friends and family. "I'm more of a giver than a taker," said Linda. "I've got a friend I want to help, I have one grandchild going to college I want to help, and my husband needs to have surgery."

Though Jackpot Piñatas is Linda's favorite slot, it's not the only one she's played. She's tried three reel classics like Triple 7 Inferno and Bank On It!, as well as video slots like Fruit Frenzy, Honey to the Bee, Paradise Dreams and Rain Dance, but she always goes back to her favorite - Jackpot Piñatas.

With more than $1.5 Million in progressive jackpots up for grabs and the release of two all-new games – Casino Hold'em and Freaky Wild West slots – Bodog Casino is the premier online casino destination. Experience all that the Bodog Casino has to offer!

After an intense 50-minute heads-up battle with "Brutus31" it all came down to one hand, "Brutus31's" A8 vs. "Ddsromero's" AJ. "Ddsromero's" AJ held up, winning him a $1,000 prize and ultimate bragging rights as Bodog.com Poker's first ever King of the Felt.

With the crown comes glory, bragging rights, and cash, but only for as long as the King can defend it.

If the reigning King is taken down by the newcomer, the newcomer will be crowned the new King of the Felt, awarded $1,000, and will then have to do their best to defend the honor of the crown. The longer a King reigns and defends their crown, the bigger their potential payouts get. Being crowned King of the Felt pays $1,000, defending the crown each subsequent week pays an additional $1,000, defending the crown for 5-weeks straight pays $2,500, and an incredible 10-week streak will earn the reigning King a shot at a 2011 World Series of Poker* Main Event prize package worth an estimated $12,000.

Earning a shot at Bodog.com Poker's King of the Felt Crown is simple, make the money in three Sit and Go tournaments in one week and earn one entry into the weekly draw.

The weekly Bodog.com Poker King of the Felt draw will happen every Monday, and any player to have cashed in at least three Sit and Gos the previous week will be automatically entered into the draw once for every entry earned. Every Thursday at 8:45pm ET the reigning King and the winner of the draw will do battle in heads-up poker action to determine whether or not the King will continue to reign, or a new King is to be crowned.
