The lucky winner – a lady who has chosen to remain anonymous but a regular at Mecca bingo in Wrexham, landed the jackpot win on the National Bingo Game following an initial prize win of £5,000 – things just kept getting better and better.

Are you one of these people that think the people who win big at bingo simply doesn’t exist and are few and far between. Think again because it is a regular occurrence in the popular numbers game. An extremely lucky lady is enjoying celebrating – and rightly so after winning a staggering £188,500 at a Wrexham bingo hall.

The woman, who has chosen to remain anonymous, landed a life-changing, six-figure jackpot prize while playing her regular game at the National Bingo Game at Mecca Wrexham yesterday afternoon.

Staff at the Smithfield Road venue caught the sensational moment when the bingo guest uncovered the triumphant sum, completely startled she shouted “oh my God” and was showered with a huge round of praise from all the other players.

The fortunate lady luck had at first won the £5,000 amusement prize but since claimed on one of the big stake numbers and subsequently stashed an additional £183,500. The bingo caller develops the excitement inside the room by saying: “There was only one winner this evening” It was approached 47 numbers by our own in-house champ in Wrexham.

“You’ve got an additional £5,000 so very well done to you. However, on top of that you claimed on one of the jackpot numbers.

“You’ve got yourself on top of the national game prize, a national jackpot – brace yourself love. Today, you’ve won yourself love – are you ready for this? – £188,508! So, very well done to you. Deservedly so.”

A representative for Mecca Wrexham said: “We’re absolutely delighted for the lady who is a regular customer. “It’s always extra special when it’s one of our own customers and we hope she continues enjoying her bingo at Mecca Wrexham.”
