A basketball fan got lucky late last month and pocketed in excess of $45,000 courtesy of Liberty Slots and the Money Shot slot from developer Wager Gaming Technology.Known as ‘Jason S’, the California resident turned to the basketball-themed game at around nine o’clock in the morning to cure a bought of boredom but was soon celebrating as the wins started to pile up.“I had a fun weekend and really didn’t feel like doing anything too complicated,” said ‘Jason S’.“It’s been so hot here. I actually started playing this game called Winter Wonderland just to see if it would cool me down. I did okay but then I started playing this basketball game, Money Shot. There’s a bonus game where you get to make free throws and, for some reason, unlike in real life, my shots were going in.”After beginning with a modest $10 wager across the game’s 20 paylines, ‘Jason S’ soon began to bet more and was rewarded when he hit a trio of scatter symbols to trigger 15 free spins with tripled prizes. One of these won the slot aficionado $22,000 while several others each paid out several thousand dollars.“I figured once I had about $3,000 it wasn’t my money anymore so let’s have some fun [and] so I went for it with maximum bets [at] $200 a spin,” said ‘Jason S’.“I’ll be putting this to good use [as] there are some things I need for the house but I may treat myself to some NBA tickets for the upcoming season.”Liberty Slots offers a wide selection of slot and table games from Wager Gaming Technology via its downloadable and instant-play platforms while 30 of its most popular titles are available to enjoy using its mobile online casino service. Players that enter the coupon code ‘CHICKENSPINS’ can claim a 200 percent deposit bonus along with 100 complimentary spins on its Funky Chicken slot, which is another game where collecting scatter symbols will trigger a special bonus round.
