September got off to a great start for one Swedish LeoVegas slots fan, who managed to win just over £100,000 from a 46p spin.  Ann-Kristin Ahlin from Sandviken, a small town north of Stockholm, won the six-figure sum playing Cosmic Fortune.

Ahlin, who describes herself as a casual player, said the win will help with debts and other troubles. She said: “I’ve played a bit in my life but I can’t describe how much this amount of money means to me. I will pay for my partner and his daughter to go to America, we’ve always talked about it.”

Despite being £100,000 richer Ahlin still went to work the night of her win. She said: “After working late that night my partner and I went to a bar and celebrated with an Irish coffee, it was, it was very cosy and I was having trouble believing it. When I first told him of the win he yelled and asked me if I was a millionaire [converted into Krona £103,827 is equal to 1,352,603 SEK].”

Commenting on Ann-Kristin’s win, LeoVegas UK country manager, Shenaly Amin said: “Ahlin’s win goes to show that anyone can win big at LeoVegas, even if they’re just betting 46p. We hope she and her family have a fantastic time in America and it’s a great feeling for everyone here to know that playing at LeoVegas helped her get there. Maybe when she gets there she can celebrate with something stronger than an Irish coffee.”
