25 year-old call-centre worker Amanda Richards couldn't believe her eyes when she saw the zeros piling up in her account. The Plymouth blonde had bet just £2.25 (almost $4) on the gambling website, RoxyPalace.com when she hit the jackpot. She was playing on a slot machine game when she won the £814,592.01 ($1.43million) payout - just two months after trying internet gambling for the first time!

Amanda couldn't believe her luck, literally. The following day at work, she logged into her account to see if the money was still there. The penny (or 81459201 of them) finally dropped when the money was paid into her bank account. The win was celebrated with a trip to London with her mum.
