A 62-year-old grandmother made bingo history after only 2 months playing online. Pauline Clark, a pensioner and grandmother from Bristol in England won GBP 1 million by achieving a full house in Gala Bingo’s online KerChingo game.

Describing her first reaction to the big win as absolute shock, she said she plans to spend some of her good fortune paying off her children’s mortgages and put up a greenhouse.

To help celebrate, Gala whisked Pauline and friends away to enjoy their first taste of a millionaire’s lifestyle. Collected in a chauffeur driven limo, they were treated to a champagne breakfast at the luxurious Hotel Du Vin.

“I’m absolutely shocked,” Pauline told reporters. “My heart is still racing. I’ve played bingo for years; in fact I won GBP 6000 in the National Game 12 years ago. However, I’ve only been playing online for two months.”

KerChingo also made bingo history by being the first online bingo game with a guaranteed million-pound prize. In order to take part Pauline and the other 14,999 finalists had to win a KerChingo final ticket by playing special KerChingo qualifying games online and on Gala TV (Sky Digital channel 841).

The final game was then streamed online, and broadcast live on Gala TV on Sunday night.
