One Leeds resident had a very lucky night after winning an amazing jackpot at a local casino.

A man from Chapel Allerton, who wishes to remain anonymous, hit the jackpot of a jaw-dropping £51,000 win at Grosvenor Casino Leeds Westgate on Wellingon Bridge Street.

He secured a ‘Player and Dealer Suited Hand’, which is only achieved when both the player and dealer’s hands consist of all four cards matching in the same suit.

In disbelief, the man told the casino staff that has no immediate plans to spend his winnings.

He said: “I’m still trying to believe it. That night was very surreal and has made a great difference in my life. I’m on top of the world right now!”

Louise Whittle, General Manager of Grosvenor Casino Leeds, said: “This was an incredible win, and we couldn’t be happier to see it go to one of our players. Blackjack is always an exciting game to play, and seeing it pay off in such a big way is fantastic. It’s these moments that make visiting the casino truly memorable.”
