Brian Christopher is a popular casino influencer. He risks his own money and, like any other gambler, is always looking to hit a jackpot.

He won the largest jackpot of his life at MGM Grand Detroit during a promotional visit, according to a report by Matt Durr on mlive.com. While live-streaming, his slot play for his fan club, the “Rudies,” he hit a bonus game on a “Crazy Chickens” slot machine.

“I placed a $37 bet and won $80,000 on this machine right here at MGM Grand Detroit,” Christopher said.

His streak of luck didn't end there. “While waiting for the payout, I hit another five or six jackpots on the same game. It just kept going,” he added, saying he screamed with excitement as a crowd gathered to watch.

During a meet-and-greet at the Axis Lounge inside MGM Grand Detroit, Christopher shared with fans how his winnings continued beyond the enormous jackpot. Even as he awaited his payment, he played other “Crazy Chickens” machines nearby and scored several more large prizes.

“We wanted to celebrate with a drink, but I kept hitting jackpots,” he joked to the crowd. “I just wanted a Crown and Coke, but instead I kept winning $4,000 jackpots.”

Christopher estimated his total winnings to be over $100,000.

Who Is Brian Christopher?

Brian found fame on YouTube with his Slot Machine Gambling Channel, Brian Christopher Slots, where he uploads daily videos of his gambling adventures all over the world.

Christopher told Durr that he initially started his YouTube channel while he was trying to land acting gigs. For fun, he decided to upload a video of himself playing slots, not expecting much from it.

"I thought, 'Maybe I'll record myself gambling. It'll be funny. I'll post it online for fun'", said Christopher about his first video. He had no plan or expectations, but within a week, his channel gained over 1,000 subscribers.

As his subscriber count grew, viewers asked for more content, prompting Christopher to upload additional videos. Today, his YouTube channel has more than 707,000 subscribers. Across various platforms, the Toronto native reaches over eight million unique viewers monthly, with his content amassing over one billion views.

Christopher Is Also a BetMGM Ambassador

In June, BetMGM announced a new partnership with Brian Christopher Slots, naming him as a brand ambassador.

The partnership features live streams on various platforms, exclusive player interactions, and a focus on responsible gaming. Both BetMGM and Christopher promote gambling as a fun and safe activity, encouraging players to set limits and play responsibly.

Does Christopher Have Any Slot Machine Secrets?

In the mlive.com article, Christopher told Durr that there is no secret to his success with slot machines.

“There are no secrets and no skill involved in playing a slot machine. The only skill I've discovered is knowing when to cash out,” Christopher said. “People often complain, saying, 'I never win,' but I think that's inaccurate. Sometimes you're ahead by $100 and continue playing.

Although he can't provide a foolproof way to win, he offers a simple tip: “You need to learn to be happy with winning $5, $10, or $20, cashing out, and leaving as a winner.”

Fans and BetMGM officials appreciate Christopher’s videos because he uses his own money rather than being funded by others.
