Vienna, Austria, May 21,
2001- Lady Luck
smiled upon Thomas Mayerbach when his name was picked from thousands
of registered Mucho Casino users to receive a Ferrari Modena 360,
sports car. Last
week, after more than 5 months of waiting Mr. Mayerbach could finally
get behind the wheel of his brand new car.
Mucho Casino gave away
the most valuable promotional gift in online gambling history.
"I was never a heavy
gambler. I like to play, but I never won anything big and cyber casino
playing was very new to me", told us Mr. Mayerbach a 34 year old
general contractor from Vienna. He signed up to play at Mucho Casino
last October. It was his first attempt at gambling online. "I saw the
advertisement on a German video game site and I said to myself, why
not?", added Mr. Mayerbach. He deposited $50 and played mostly
roulette and blackjack at Mucho Casino. He won a small amount and
returned occasionally to play last winter.
Going from 0 to 100 in
4.6 seconds
When he first heard the news about the Ferrari drawing he thought it
was a prank phone call and almost hung up the phone. He couldn't
believe what he heard. To this day he still has difficulties
comprehending that he is the proud owner of a car that he could only
admire from a distance as a child.
He
told us that he'll keep his Volvo S40 as his "weekday car" and
reserves the Ferrari that goes from 0 to 180 in 9 seconds for special
trips and for nights out. He's planning to drive his dream car to
Frankfurt on Germany's adrenaline charged autobahns later this month.
"I'm looking forward to this trip. It should be fun", concluded the
proud winner.
Mucho Casino's grand
prize is the largest promotional gift ever given to an online casino
user. Mucho Casino has been in business since June 2000. They're
holding another Ferrari 360 drawing in January 2002.
