GIBRALTAR, August 7, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

Newly registered casino player wins £24,804 tackling THE DARK KNIGHT^TM online slot game

32Red Casino, one of the UK's premier online casino sites and winners of numerous awards, are delighted to announce that one of their casino players has managed to win £24,804 (NZ$47,471) playing the hugely popular THE DARK KNIGHT^TM online slot game.

The lucky player, 'Jake S' from New Zealand, managed to trigger the bonus wheel on Sunday (July 29^th) after playing the game for a mere 21 minutes. Even more remarkable was the fact that Jake had only joined 32Red Casino account three days before - talk about beginner's luck!

Commenting on Jake's tremendous win, a spokesperson for 32Red Casino said today:

"Congratulations are in order: a big well done to Jake. Since its release last month THE DARK KNIGHT online slot game has proved immensely popular with thousands of online players from around the world battling for the £1m+ Jackpot"

"It seems fate was on Jake's side. Although he didn't hit the massive jackpot, a win of almost £25k from a 60p spin on a slot machine just shows what can be achieved if lady luck is with you."

Jake signed up to 32Red after checking online review sites and finding flawless reviews of their service, initially joining to try their Slot Tournaments. Little did he know that a huge payout was soon to head his way. In an email to 32Red he said:

"It was about midday here when I decided I would have a go at some of the slots. THE DARK KNIGHT was really attractive and I caught a few features and then out of nowhere the screen fell apart and I was in the progressive jackpot feature. I chose my hero and the wheel just kept spinning and spinning, eventually creeping along to the turquoise slots and hitting the MAJOR progressive jackpot for £24,804 which is over $47k in New Zealand. It was such a shock and I really don't think it has sunk in yet."

THE DARK KNIGHT online slot game, which is based on the epic Batman film of the same name, has only recently been unveiled inside the 32Red casino lobby. Yet it's causing a stir. Since its release thousands have logged in to try their luck at defeating Gotham City's evils. This 5 reel, 243 ways video slot defines excitement! With in-play cash features, an impressive 4 tier progressive jackpot and bonus rounds galore, it's no wonder the game has proved so popular.
