A Nairobi man is celebrating a life-changing windfall after turning a modest Ksh 40 bet into Ksh 500,000 while playing Aviator on Chezagame.
The winner, identified as Teddy Kiti, chose to conceal his identity during the cheque presentation ceremony, covering his face as he received the half-a-million-shilling payout. He said the decision was made to maintain privacy despite the excitement surrounding his win.
According to Teddy, he had been playing Aviator for some time and never anticipated such a major breakthrough.
“I’ve been playing for a while, just trying my luck and enjoying the game,” he said. “On that day, I placed 40 bob like I normally do. I didn’t expect anything unusual. When I saw the amount in my account, I thought it was an error. I refreshed several times just to be sure.”
Aviator, a fast-paced crash game where players cash out before a virtual plane flies away, has gained popularity among Kenyan bettors for its simplicity and potential for high multipliers.
