If you get lucky at online casino and you win the jackpot, what type of car would you buy? In case you’ve never given this idea a lot of thought, here’s what some of the most famous poker jackpot winners are driving.
DARIO MINIERI
With close to $2 million in total winnings, Dario’s a young upcoming Italian poker star. While among the elites of nearby Monaco his Porsche Cayman might be a fairly mundane vehicle, not many ordinary Britons have one of these to impress their co-wokers and friends. He reportedly bought the car with Frequent Player Points.
PHIL IVEY
While Daniel Negreanu is widely regarded as the planet’s best poker player, with a net worth of around $100 million Phil Ivey certainly has the money to splurge on the car of his dreams. He has been seen driving around in his 2005 Mercedes Benz SLR McLaren – a car for which he forked out around half a million dollars. On Sundays, when he probably wants to create an even more elegant impression, he has a couple of Rolls Royce Phantoms to choose from.
VANESSA ROUSSO
Vanessa is one of the best-performing female winners in history with winnings in excess of $3.5 million, and she’s got the cars to match her track record. First she bought a stunning lemon-yellow Lamborghini Gallardo, but she soon traded that in for something less flashy: a 2012 Bentley GT.
DAN BILZERIAN
This guy refers to himself as the King of Instagram. He as quite a royal lifestyle, with cars to match his reported fortune of well over €150 million. Here’s just a couple of the cars he’s owned so far:
- Bentley Continental GT worth around €190,000
- 1965 AC Shelby Cobra 427 worth more than €1.8 million
- Lamborghini Aventador – worth nearly €400,000
