Players at Playtech online casinos have only one thing on their minds at the moment and it is the $6 million plus progressive jackpot online slot game Beach Life. The enormity of this event can be gauged by looking at a few statistics of Beach Life. Over the last two years Beach Life has recorded five hits at an average payout of $1.8 million and an average interval between hits of four months. It was last hit over seven months ago. Its highest payout in four years has been $4.25 million. Ever since the progressive jackpot amount crossed this mark early in November 2011 it has been rising furiously. In the last five days it has risen by over $240,000 making the increase almost $50,000 per day.

Beach Life is a summer themed slot game. The symbols on the reels depict the summer time beach activities like snorkeling, sun tanning and surfing. There are plenty of different ice creams instead of the usual high value card symbols. The wild sun symbol is the one that players are on the lookout for. Five sun symbols on the 20th payline result in the progressive jackpot being hit. Activating all 20 paylines costs $10 at 50 cents per payline. If five sun symbols appear on any other payline then the payout is 100,000 coins. Beach Life is focused on the progressive jackpot and therefore does not offer any free spins or bonus game on the second screen.

Sylvia from Canada knows what it is like to have won big on Playtech Beach Life. She won only $4 million plus, but she was not complaining. Sylvia was talking to her brother when she hit the progressive jackpot. He could not believe it. Neither could her children believe it when she told them the good news. At that time Sylvia said that she would not splurge her winnings on a holiday or a shopping spree. Her children were her priority and she would buy a house for them and give them what she had not been able to do so till now. Sylvia always dreamt that she would win big one day. Her message to online players was, “Never stop dreaming and hoping because one day maybe you will be the one in the hall of fame just like me.”

Sooner or later someone else will follow in Sylvia’s footsteps. Omni Casino is one of the Playtech online casinos that are exhorting their players to go for the Beach Life progressive jackpot. Adanna Matthews, Head of VIP at Omni Casino, said in the online casino newsletter, “Win it for the holiday of a lifetime! Omni players looking to walk away with the jackpot of a lifetime are invited to try their luck playing Beach Life this weekend. GO WIN THIS THING!!!”
