Big things are happening with the online bingo community lately and the prize money seems to be getting more and more impressive with each passing event. The Joy Pot game, which was hosted at Wink Bingo on 29th April this year, ended in an incredible triumph for local Joy of Bingo player ‘Polgara52’. It seems that her decision to play online bingo that day was an inspired one, as the lucky lady walked off with an astonishing £50,000 in prize money.

The usual prize for the Joy Pot game series is an impressive £25 000 but Wink decided to spice things up a bit this time around. Perhaps even more excitingly, this was a 75 ball bingo game which meant that the big prize was only going to end up in the hands of a single phenomenal player. Polgara hadn’t even been aware of her huge victory until she was contacted directly by Wink but she couldn’t accept the truth of her victory until she logged into her account and saw the winnings for herself.

“I'm in the process of arranging for a family holiday - we couldn't afford one this year but my win from Wink has made it possible. I'll make up my mind how to spend the rest later!” “Once again thank you to all at Wink, you have no idea of how this money will help,” stated the elated player. Polgara’s win is fantastic but there are many more players around the world winning big with online bingo and more and more people are getting involved.

One of the prime reasons behind this new trend may well be the increase of quality bingo promotions being offered by some of the big names such as Wink and Bingo Gringo. There are, however, many more reasons to get involved and another popular one has been that people are discovering the ways in which this hobby can bolster household income during difficult times.
