Man wins $6m jackpot at Marina Bay Sands casino in Singapore, collapses immediately after suffering heart attack. A high stakes casino player suffered a massive heart attack just moments after reportedly winning a £3.2 million ($6.11 million) jackpot. After scooping up the huge prize the man started to jump for joy around the packed out casino before he dramatically collapsed on the ground clutching his chest. Panicked players watched on as staff members attempted to revive the fallen gambler, The Sun reported. A woman who was with the stricken man can be seen in the harrowing footage becoming increasingly distressed as he lays lifeless on the floor. She can be heard pleading with the man to survive and begging others to help as a large crowd surrounded him..... He lost badly in the end. ID: 2137618 · Reply Quote

[EDIT to add:] But maybe they weren't married yet or he still would have had to change his testament in her favor. That's also tragic. ID: 2137632 · Reply Quote
