Virginian woman closed her eyes and won an $864,000 jackpot


A resident of Falls Church, Virginia, became the owner of a jackpot worth $863,941 after playing the online lottery MONOPOLY Super Spin. She closed her eyes and heard the sound signal 'bling', which announced the super jackpot win.

After the win, the woman exclaimed: 'OMG, I won the jackpot!' and noted that the feeling of winning seemed unreal to her. She also said that before playing she kept telling herself: 'I shouldn't be playing this.'

Game details and odds

In Virginia, lottery winnings can be claimed anonymously, and the winner chose this option to keep her identity private. MONOPOLY Super Spin has odds of winning 1 in 3.88, ticket price ranges from $0.50 to $50, and to win you need to open a cluster of three or more identical symbols on a 5×4 grid. The super jackpot is formed thanks to the sale of linked games across different lotteries.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
