By Becky Turner on Friday, 26 May 2006 Bingo website Gala Bingo has set the world record for the biggest-ever internet bingo win.
On Friday night, world record breaker Dodey, a mum-of-three, won a massive £162,701.97 – the largest payout ever.
Dodey has been visiting her local Gala Bingo club in Luton for many years but only began playing bingo online last month. On Friday night she was playing online bingo with Gala Bingo, a partner site of Bingobase, while she was cooking and landed the Cash Climber Jackpot.
She said: "I can't believe how quickly I won – I've been playing online less than a week!"
Dodey, who also has ten grandchildren, is planning to pay off her mortgage and visit friends in Australia that she hasn't seen for years. She's going to treat her family with the winnings as well.
So far there have been more than 30,000 winners at Gala Bingo – amounting to up to 720 every day. And that doesn't include winners in the Chat games, or those using the Slot Machines and Scratchcards.
