New Car, Vacation and a New Business! Markus W. Wins $133,590.22 On Treasure Nile At Captain Cook's.
 Online gambler Markus W., Salesman, won $133,590.22 progressive jackpot playing Treasure Nile Video Slot at Captain Cook's online casino on March 6th, 2002. "With the help of the jackpot money, I now have the chance of really choosing a job I want or starting a new business, rather than taking the next offer in order to feed my family! The timing could not have been better!!" said the winner. Treasure Nile is a Microgaming 5 reel 9 payline progressive slot game with 35 different winning combinations and progressive jackpot starting at $40,000. The recent winner Markus W answered several questions concerning this big win. Here's the full interview:
What was your reaction to winning such a huge jackpot?
I moved back from the keyboard and stared at the display. After 10 seconds I called my wife and pointed to the screen. She read the jackpot message and said: 'Come on, you are kidding!' - I shook my head. 'Is it points or money?' - 'Money. US Dollars!' - Silence. Even more silence. 'Ok, good work. Lunch is ready. Stop playing!'
What are your plans for your winnings?
Currently my family needs a new family car. My wife and I have a 6 month old daughter. Now, we will buy a nice car for $30,000. The remaining 100k will be invested for future business. (I think about founding a new company.) We also plan on taking a nice vacation next year. Now, we can afford to plan the holiday of our dreams!
What do you do for good luck?
I play. Without participation there can't be luck. It's that simple. No voodoo, no dolls. Just play!
Do you have any advice for your fellow Jackpot Madness players?
The MOST important of all strategies in our world is: Never give up! Even if you look at the top managers of world wide companies, you will find they only "cook with water" as we say in German. The reason that somebody is successful is not only skill and talent. The key is to try again and again. If you fail, stand up and fight again. The author Bert Brecht said: "Those who fight may lose. Those who do not fight, already lost." (Translated from German, of course.)
Do you have any special hobbies?
Playing Magic - The Gathering.
Is there anything else you would like to share with your fellow progressives fans?
I am married (for the second time) and we have a 6 month old daughter. I am 34 years old and I was forced to close my computer business last month. Now I am looking for a new job. With the help of the jackpot money I know have the chance of really choosing a job rather than taking the next offer in order to feed my family! The timing could not have been better.
