He won the amazing amount of money after spending only 60p to play the game and had to check several times to confirm the exact amount he had won.
The lucky winner who has chosen to remain anonymous is planning to spend the jackpot on a dream home for him and his girlfriend, before treating his parents to a once-in-a-lifetime vacation to Canada to celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary.
The luxury spending will not stop there, because the winning casino customer plans to travel to Dubai with his partner, having bought himself a new car.
The winner: "it's an amazing experience and for a long time I had no idea exactly how much I had won. I couldn't believe my eyes until I looked closely at the balance and saw £885,000, after a spin of just 60p.
“I've enjoyed a bet my entire adult life, but never before have I come close to winning as much as this. I took my girlfriend out to dinner to celebrate, then we start looking for our dream home.”

Sean said “ " after working on the chicken farm I came back to my room with a colleague I live with I decided to risk a few spins on Betfair Casino.
“I landed the jackpot and showed my phone to my friend to check it, he thought it was £ 1,300 but I told him he needed to look again to add a few zeros. “I was in complete shock, so I had to look at the balance a few times and it still hasn't sunk in, it's the most surreal moment of my life.”
