Canadian player wins big with Manx-based firm

Manx-based egaming giant Pokerstars says one of its players is going to have a very special Christmas - after winning a million dollars.

The Canadian player known as Kopieworm won the huge jackpot earlier this week, less than seven days after another player also won a million.

The company, based in Onchan, says more than 180 of its customers have now become millionaires after winning huge prizes.

The million dollar poker prize, won with the firm's Spin & Go game, involved an initial stake of just $100.
