A Diamond Strike Worth R1.064 Million: Luck or Nerve?

Which developer powered YesPlay South Africa’s latest big win? You guessed it – Pragmatic Play, a familiar name behind many of the platform’s notable payouts and major wins elsewhere in recent months.

Scratch that… Since the dawn of time, actually.

On this occasion, the game of choice was Diamond Strike. What originally seems like just an appealing name quickly became a case of manifestation for the player involved.

With a R24,000 bet, there was surely at least a gut feeling. Or was the R1,064,000 win truly a moment of magic? Others would argue that a 44.33x multiplier is far from out of this world, and this win was simply a reward for their bravery.

After spending his earlier years studying music technology while figuring out what he really wanted to do, things gradually fell into place for Jake and it was a combination of his love for sports and his A-level in English Language that pulled him through. Combining his linguistic capabilities with his passion for Southampton Football Club, he quickly mastered the art of writing letters of criticism to the club’s chairman. He now spends his weekdays (and often evenings) writing sportsbook and casino reviews so that you know where to wager on Saints’ next 0-9 defeat.
