Last week, a woman in Nanaimo, British Columbia, Canada, was stunned when she won a jackpot of up to 2.1 million yuan playing slot machines in the local harbor city.
According to the B.C. Lottery, jackpots on Powerbucks slot machines start at $1 million and then increase as more and more people across the province place bets on associated slot machines.
The odds of winning the jackpot on a $3 bet on the Powerbucks slot machine are about one in 25 million, the lottery said. It turned out that the lucky man was Erralyn Joseph. Erralyn almost didn't go to the casino that day, it was all on the spur of the moment.

"My husband and I hadn't planned to go that night, we had been to a restaurant earlier so we had decided to have a drink instead of the casino."
Although I changed my mind and went to the casino later, I didn't plan to play for too long after I went. "I still have children at home, so I wanted to leave", but suddenly decided to block the last one, thinking that the machine next to it was still hot, so she chose to spend another minute on the slot machine next to the lady. "
In total, Erralyn Joseph won $2,129,070.54 on his third spin of the machine. Listen, luck has been leading her along!
Of course, both Erralyn Joseph and her husband were in shock, and when she realized how much she had won, she screamed, feeling like she was floating! She quickly took out her mobile phone and took a photo to record this wonderful moment. If it wasn't for this picture, no one would believe that she won $2.1 million! That's almost on the brink of breaking the winning record for casinos in British Columbia.
Her husband felt on the spot: "This is not true! How could this be true?" Erralyn Joseph described the feeling of winning the lottery as "suddenly leaving the surface of the earth, as if floating in the air."
The lucky one, Erralyn Joseph, told everyone that her biggest feeling from this experience is: Keep believing, keep trying, and don’t lose your shirt.
