Highest poker jackpot ever falls in casino Eindhoven, glasses fall in mustard

A 66-year-old man won the largest poker jackpot ever at Holland Casino in Eindhoven on Friday evening. He had a so-called straight flush: five consecutive cards, of diamonds. With that he earned an amount of 535,957 euros.

The man and his wife, who wish to remain anonymous, remained sober under the profit. “We really have to get used to the idea,” they say. “We don’t need expensive clothes or distant holidays. A nice camper that we can share with the children and grandchildren will probably be there. And we want to do a renovation at home.”

At the drink to celebrate the win, the woman’s glasses fell into the mustard. But she could laugh about that. “New glasses can be removed,” she winked.

The poker jackpot is relatively new. Players then do not play poker against each other, but against the bank. This is done digitally at various tables in the country.
