The inevitable had to happen sometime. The Playtech progressive jackpot online slot game Beach Life had breached the 8 million mark and was racing northward. Then on Sunday February 12 some lucky player must have drawn the five sun symbols in the 20th payline and the jackpot was hit for 8,211,488. The ticker immediately plummeted to the reset value of 50,000 credits. Many hearts must have been broken on Sunday, just two days before Valentine's Day. But the disappointment will not last long because online casino players know how to rejoice in the happiness of one of their kind.

For the statistically minded online casino players, this huge hit on the Beach Life has changed the average figures for the progressive jackpot online slot game. The average payout over the last five hits has increased to just over 2.6 million credits. And since this hit came after a delay of 281 days, the average period between hits has risen to 163 days. Not that these statistics matter very much, because Beach Life is one of the most erratic progressive jackpots. Over the last four years it has hit from 200,000 to 4,200,000 and now 8,200,000.

There are plenty of questions that need to be answered. Who was the player? In which Playtech online casino was he wagering? In what currency will he be getting this multi million payout? All answers will come, but in due course. Till then one can rewind to one of the memorable hits on Beach Life way back in August 2008. The winner then was Sylvia P from Canada who was playing on Playtech powered Joyland Casino. This online casino is owned and operated by Crown Solutions Gaming Ltd. and is licensed by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission. The hit was memorable because Sylvia had signed up with Joyland Casino only three weeks before.

Sylvia was playing from home and talking to her brother Henry on the phone when she realized that she had hit the jackpot. It took a while for Henry to realize that his sister had become a millionaire four times over. Sylvia's children also did not believe her at first. One of them asked, "Mom I am a millionaire, answer? You are joking right?" Sylvia's life had not been easy. Therefore the usual choices of splurging on a foreign trip or a shopping spree were not for her. Her priority was to buy a house and give her children what she had not been able to do so till then. Sylvia's advice to online casino players was, "Never stop dreaming and hoping because one day maybe you will be the one in the hall of fame just like me." Someone has followed Sylvia's advice seriously.
