The First Bingo Millionaire
September 5th, 2007Author: Mark Newman
This week, a 62 year-old woman, Pauline Clark, from Bristol in England has won GBP 1 million playing Gala Bingo’s online KerChingo game. To celebrate it, Gala offered Pauline and her friends a chauffer driven limo. And then they had a champagne breakfast at Du Vin Hotel.
The woman has played bingo for years. 12 years ago she won GBP 6,000 in the National Game. And only after two weeks of playing online she won a million.
Being in a shock after the so-called miracle, Pauline decided to spend the money helping her children and putting up a greenhouse.
KerChingo is the first bingo game with a guaranteed million-pound prize. To take part in the game Pauline and the other 14 999 finalists had to win a KerChingo final ticket by playing special KerChingo qualifying games online and on Gala TV (Sky Digital channel 841). The final game could be seen online, and broadcast live on Gala TV.
