High Wycombe Administrator Gets a £200k Key to the Door
Sunday, October 5th, 2008
PRWEB – Matt Styles, a 21 year old from High Wycombe received a belated birthday present of £196,633 last Friday after entering his first online game of Deal or No Deal. A day after celebrating his 21st birthday, the lucky administrator bypassed Noel Edmonds and triggered the online jackpot on Ladbrokesgames.com that has been building since the launch of the game just over one year ago. Matt, who lives at home with his mum, dad and two sisters, already has big plans for the substantial sum of money with a Volkswagen Golf from his local Citygate branch and a trip to visit his auntie who recently emigrated to Canada at the top of his list. Conscious that he has his whole life ahead of him, Matt won’t be squandering the money and after sharing some of his winnings with his family and girlfriend Olivia Noble, he plans to invest the rest for a later date. Matt said, “I’m thrilled with my win but it’s only just sinking in – I’m still waiting for someone to tell me it’s a wind up! Last week was definitely one I won’t forget for a long time, turning 21 and then going on to win almost £200k in such a short space of time was unbelievable. Maybe some of Noel Edmond’s cosmic ordering has rubbed off on me!” Charlie Goodenough, Acquisition Marketing Manager at Ladbrokesgames.com says, “The Deal or No Deal Jackpot took just over a year to trigger and what a fantastic coincidence that our own birthday celebrations corresponded with Matt’s 21st birthday. The game, based on the hugely successful television game show, has been extremely popular since its launch and has seen us give away over £14.75m in prizes.” A keen follower of greyhound racing, Matt took the jackpot on his first ever game of Deal or No Deal after he strayed from the sports betting section of Ladbrokes.com. Alongside Deal or No Deal, players can log on to Ladbrokesgames.com to enjoy popular games such as Monopoly On A Roll, Tomb Raider and Bullseye. All new players will also receive a £10 welcome bonus when they register on the site.
