Chicken farmer reaps millions in Izizzi jackpot
Poultry farmer M.D.* struggled to keep his small business afloat due to a lack of capital and resources.
However, his fortunes changed dramatically when he decided to try his luck and won the largest Izizzi Greek Gods Jackpot prize of $2,251,852.00. Though initially hesitant due to his unfamiliarity with the game, the now millionaire took a chance with Izizzi, which led to a life-changing success.
M.D. recounted how he and his friend had spent the day playing bar game boxes in St Thomas, only to face disappointment. Disheartened, they decided to call it quits. M.D. headed to another bar in Yallahs, hoping for better luck. He was unsuccessful again, and even more disheartened.
“I saw a vehicle going near another bar, so I took it and walked the rest of the journey to the bar. At this time, I had $500 left from the money I took from my poultry business. The Izizzi VLT (video lottery terminal) was being played at this bar, so I took the money and began to bet $15 for each game. On the fourth try, I saw five icons representing a king, and then I saw a jackpot on the screen. I thought it was a demo, so I asked someone playing beside me what it meant, and he told me I won the jackpot of $2 million,” he said.
Overwhelmed with shock and disbelief, he found himself wandering around the bar in a daze.
“It wasn’t until I was instructed to cash out the ticket that reality began to sink in, with a representative coming over to assist me.” Reflecting on his past experiences, M.D. said that he usually preferred playing American Roulette and was initially reluctant to explore the Greek Gods game. He had even advised the retailer to stick with the other traditional boxes he was familiar with.
“I’m thankful that the retailer didn’t listen to me. Instead, she encouraged me to try Izizzi. It was my first time playing Greek Gods, I was unsure what to do and kept pressing the spin button, and now I am a millionaire!”
Alyssa MooYoung, CEO of Izizzi Lottery, said that to date, the company has celebrated seven Izizzi Millions Jackpot winners, collectively winning around $20 million.
