Highlights

• Practical nurse, Chantal got the surprise of her life on April 22. While taking a relaxing soak in the tub, she tried her luck at the Chain Reactors Super Trails game.

• And after just two bets, she bagged the $147,441 progressive jackpot! “After two plays, I just couldn’t believe it!”

• After taking three screenshots of her prize, stealing a look at her account balance and then at the amount of the progressive jackpot, and talking on the phone with our Customer Service team, she realized she wasn’t dreaming. “If you look quickly, you think it’s $14,000, but no!”

• The lucky winner didn’t wait long before calling up her girlfriend to tell her the good news. The latter just couldn’t believe it. Chantal then called her mother, who was sceptical and thought she was joking at first. “It’s hard to believe,” the winner giggled during our call.

• In terms of plans, she says she’s thinking about adding some extra living space to her house. Isolated at home since the beginning of the crisis due to her health condition, Chantal often thinks about her hard-working colleagues in the field. Her personalized avatar captures this!
