Just Crazy Becomes Crazy Good!

This Jr. Member has been registered at LCB, only a short while, (December, 2017) but he's already on his way to making a lasting impression. He calls himself “TheAverageGuy,” but from everything we know about him, average is one thing, he is not... In fact, he is our Big Winner of the week!

His name is Shawn and hails from Ontario, Canada. He has three children, one, age 13 and two, amazing young adults. Shawn has been a fundraising consultant, for the last 20 years. He assists countless organizations across the globe, obtain money, to finance worthy causes in their area.

Nowadays, Shawn can help most of these organizations, at his desk, via his computer. He said, "As the boss, the dress code is VERY lax and I set very manageable hours for myself... which leaves me time to putter around at online casinos."

Shawn's big win came from Casino-Mate. He said, "It was actually my first deposit and withdrawal. I learned of it through a post on the no deposit forums" Shawn made a few small deposits, wrestled with "Greedy Goblins" and eventually got the better of them, winning $800-$900, but he didn't cashout.....

He had some free spins on the new "Sugar Rush" slot, but eventually, he lost the winnings from those and still wanted to play a "little more!" Is this where crazy begins....

He went on to say, "Which began as an epic battle of wills between me and the machine.. lasting somewhere around 8 or 9 hours.. at one point it had taken almost all of my Greedy Goblin money, but I was determined (crazy?) that it was going to pay me and little by little

I climbed back up in winnings until I was just over Seven Thousand Dollars..."

Wow, what a fabulous win Shawn! Tell us, how did you feel and what were you thinking? He said, "It was actually some of the most stressful time I've ever spent on my "hobby" as I constantly questioned if I was nuts for not stopping at 2k or 3k, etc, pushing my luck, but sometimes everything just lines up, it was my week in the sun!"

Since this was your first withdrawal from "Casino-Mate," how did it go and do you have any plans for those winnings? He told us, "With barely a delay, my ecopayz account is now 7k richer..."

"Speaking of a week in the sun.. I'm thinking that's a wonderful way to spend some of it, after paying off some bills and of course leaving myself a little nest egg for my hobby."

We always recommend that you cashout after a big win. How big is big enough to cashout and if you don't, is it crazy! In this case, "crazy good!"

“It was actually my first deposit and withdrawal.”

I really laughed at "the most stressful moment in my hobby" part, hahaha. Yeah, gambling is difficult to be a hobby because of the very reason. If a player is very very rich, then losing money can be fine. But, for most of players, losing a little money can be stressful :)

its always nice to hear when anybody wins , congrats to them for sure . sometimes its really a shock to read about the wins coming off a game that to me was never a winner . but i guees it can just hit very different each play . so i wont be giving up on games as easy as in the past .

Congratulations TheAverageGuy! Those kind of wins... why it almost every time happens to newly registered customers? I think it is part of the marketing strategy, "first time deposit, big win, have to tell all about this, more registered customers". Or I can be wrong also. Maybe some just have better luck.

Congratulations Shawn, Its a very nice win especially with a first deposit. unlike Shawn, I do not take the risks in playing, no maximum bet and I stop playing when I get a win of 20x my deposit. a win on one slot can be lost on another slot.

Its nice to see that somebody is actually withdrawing money from online casinos lol. Ive been playing at them for a few years now and ive only ever made one withdrawal. It seems as though all the planets need to be alligned for me before i actually withdraw. Not having a photo ID makes it difficult for me sometimes too....

A very nice win there , well done Averageguy on winning such sweet amount and I take my hat off to your bravery on pursuing on for the mega pay load , I dont think I would have had the guts to pursue that battle all the way up to 10K , 1000 would have been my withdrawal limit but you know what some players ' Go big or...
