Lightning Strikes Twice in One Week at SugarHouse Online Casino as Another Winner Hits Mega Jackpot

CHERRY HILL, N.J., April 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- A Marlboro, New Jersey woman was working out on her treadmill in the morning when she decided to set up her smart phone to gamble a little while exercising.  She started playing the jackpot game Divine Fortune on playsugarhouse.com, and in less than 5 minutes, the lucky winner, who asked not to reveal her name, hit the Mega Jackpot for $61,266 dollars after spending less than $10. 

"I couldn't believe it," said the eighth grade teacher who won the jackpot.  "You never think this is going to happen to you but I'm proof it does. I was working out at my house this morning, listening to music and playing on my cell phone when I hit the jackpot.  I was so shocked I almost fell off the treadmill."

The same game she won big on, Divine Fortune, a progressive Mega Jackpot game, just hit last week for nearly $194,000 for an Avenel, NJ man. Anibal Lopes, a 33 year old superintendent for a construction company, is the biggest winner since playsugarhouse.com entered the iGaming market in NJ in September 2016.

"We are very happy for this latest winner that comes just one week after we had our biggest jackpot win since launching playsugarhouse.com a year and a half ago," said Richard Schwartz, President of Rush Street Interactive, the sites operator. "This is good for us and for the entire online gaming industry, showing that it is possible to win life-changing amounts online."

This is the fifth time Divine Fortune, a video slot game set in the days of ancient Greece, has hit Mega Jackpots for playsugarhouse.com players.  The first was in May 2017 for $13,950.  The second and third were both in September 2017 for $91,680 and $46,096.  The fourth was just last Monday for $193,737. 

Divine Fortune is a 5-reel, 3-row, 20-line (fixed) video slot game with 3 different jackpots including the progressive Mega Jackpot.  It's one of the more than 400 games players on playsugarhouse.com can choose from that include slots, blackjack, roulette, video poker, and virtual sports betting. 

The Marlboro teacher said she likes playing online because it relaxes her and she can enjoy the convenience of playing on her smart phone at home.  "You can play anytime," said New Jersey's latest online jackpot winner. "Even while exercising."

The married mother of 3 grown children said she is going to use the money to visit her son in California and pay off bills.
