The biggest win in gambling machines.

In 2000 Cynthia Jay, who worked as waitress, won the $35 million in the city of Las Vegas. After work, she decided to drop in to the casino, although she did not plan to play much, since she had only about $27 with her. Despite this fact Cynthia decided to try her luck with the One Armed Bandit.



After playing for an hour without much success the girl had decided to leave the gaming machine, when suddenly there was a stunning ringing sound that notifies the whole casino if someone hit the Jackpot.

The machine, on which Cynthia got lucky, was part of the Megabucks system.
The percentage from all other machines was transferred to the Megabucks system; as a result Cynthia grabbed the Jackpot of $ 34,959,458!

Thus, Cynthia Jay at that time beat the record of the biggest win in gambling machines. To earn such a sum of money, she would have to work 1165 years or more.

Unfortunately, the girl could not fully enjoy her new status as a rich woman. Literally few months after her winning, the girl got into an accident and was seriously injured, after which she was left to move around in a wheelchair.

In her interviews, Cynthia repeatedly stated that she would give all her money for the opportunity to work again as a waitress and ability to go to work.
