Pigs Can Fly! Just Ask This Guy Who Won A Huge €100,000 Slot Win

18+

The man in question wishes to remain anonymous, so we don’t have a name.

Let’s call him Gustaf. Gustaf the insurance guy.

That’s kinda Swedish, but old fashioned enough to fit our cliche picture of what we believe a guy who assesses risk for a living would look like.

Hey, big slot winner stories are only fun if you can have a picture in your head of to whom and how it happened.

So, let us paint you a picture of how Gustaf won €100,000 / £71,000 / $110,000 on the brilliant Piggy Riches slot machine.

Now you get the joke about the pigs, right?

How he won €100,000 in the free spins bonus round

It was a typical Wednesday evening for Gustaf.

His family was home, the kids were in bed, the day had finally started to wind down.

So he did what any of us would do. He turned on the computer, logged in to Mr Green casino, and started playing.

Why he choose the Piggy Riches slot machine

If you know anything about insurance, it’s that it’s all about risk-management and risk-assessment.

And whilst most of you would say that playing casino slots is all risk… well you’ll be partly right. It’s one of the reasons Gustaf plays.

We suspect that when you’re life is all about calculating how likely you are to die, it makes you want to live on the edge a little bit. At least, it would for us.

That said, Gustaf is clearly a smart man. No point throwing your cash away on video slots that don’t pay out. He chose a high variance game that would give him the opportunity to win big.

NetEnt’s Piggy Riches was just that game.

A high risk slot machine for a low risk man

Most Net Entertainment slots are, to be honest, fairly fun, easy playing mobile slots.

Not that you can’t win big. God knows we’ve had plenty of big winner stories from the likes of Jack Hammer or Gonzo’s Quest.

Just that most are made so that players win quickly and often, just not always a huge amount – Starburst is a prime example.

Not Piggy Riches. Piggy Riches is what we like to call an ‘all or nothing machine’.

Or, in other words ‘feels like you’ll only win when pigs actually start flying.’

It’s a massively frustrating machine, and is certainly not for everyone. But those brave enough to face the bacon, can be very richly rewarded. As Gustaf demonstrated.

Why is Piggy Riches so dangerous?

Mostly because if you want to survive these pig partying slot game, you are going to have to wait for the free spins.

If you hit a good free spin round early, you’ll be laughing. If you don’t, you’ll quickly see your balance dwindle as these piggies spend all your money on news cars and Rolex watches.

But oh my… those bonus free spins are wonderfully marvellous.

3 scatters gets you a choice of:

• 22 free spins – 2x multiplier
• 15 free spins – 3x multiplier
• 9 free spins – 5x multiplier

4 scatters gets you a choice of:

• 25 free spins – 2x multiplier
• 18 free spins – 3x multiplier
• 14 free spins – 4x multiplier
• 10 free spins – 6x multiplier

We’ve never hit 5 scatters. But the rumour along the grapevine is that you can get up to 26 free spins and a 6x multipliers.

We don’t know exactly which feature Gustaf triggered. What we do know is that in order to end up with a kingly sum of €100,000 by the end of the Piggy Riches free spins round, he almost certainly picked the 6x or 5x multiplier.

He literally couldn’t believe his eyes

How do you react when you have such a blazing win?

If you’re an insurance broker, you take out the calculator and ensure the numbers are correct.

“I thought my eyes were fooling me, I logged in and out and saw the figure €10,000. Taking out the calculator to double check myself, the actual balance was over €100 000!” Stated our lucky winner.

Ok, so maybe he’s not a very good insurance guy. Even we can count zeros, and this is coming from people who once left a $5 tip on a coffee before we realised which bank-note we had handed over.

How will he spend his well earned money?

And we say ‘earned’. Playing on Piggy Riches is for braves souls only.

That said, this soul almost didn’t survive the experience:

“I have my own business dealing in life-insurance and almost needed to cash in my own! Jokes aside, the money will go straight on a trip for the whole family to Liseberg, an amusement park in Gothenburg, Sweden. The rest of the winnings I will invest.” Gustaf continued.

A sensible answer, from a sensible man, who’s high risk game playing paid off beautifully.

Hats off to you Gustaf!
