As you know, we're all about sports betting here at Dimers, but, occasionally, we come across gambling stories that are simply too wild not to share, and this story, originally published by Dimers in April 2023, certainly fits into that category!
Picture this... you're just chilling, playing some slots at your local casino and then, suddenly, the screen flashes the life changing message you've been waiting for - YOU'VE HIT A JACKPOT!
And we're not just talking a 'shout the bar' or ' let's go on vacation' jackpot, either. This was a jackpot worth $43 million. Yes, $43 million!
Well, that's exactly what happened to a woman by the name of Katrina Bookman at Resorts World in New York.
Yay, Katrina! Or not...
Unfortunately for Bookman, the casino quickly cried malfunction, blaming - you guessed it - a "faulty" slot machine.
That old chestnut, eh!
Surely the casino would appropriately compensate Bookman for the technical glitch, right? After all, she had just won $43 million dollars.
Well, yeah, I guess they did .... kind of.
This is where the story gets absolutely WILD.
The Incident
Bookman was overjoyed when she saw the slot machine screen flash with a jackpot amount of $43 million. However, the casino quickly dismissed her win as a machine error, citing a disclaimer that malfunctions void all pays and plays.
Despite the emotional rollercoaster and legal debates that followed, Bookman walked away with just two dollars and a steak dinner voucher.
Yup, two measly dollars and a voucher for a steak dinner!
Only minutes earlier she would have been dreaming about how she could spend $43 million!!
Let that sink in. From $43 million dollars to just $20 in the blink of an eye.
Why is this relevant to Dimers, you ask? Well, this story underscores a crucial lesson for sport bettors: the importance of reliability.

Here’s why the precise data and insights available to Dimers Pro subscribers are invaluable:
