Joackim Björänge bet 108 kroner and won 302,000 kroner on V85.

The first thing he did – call mom.

– I was shaking and couldn’t even speak. She was super happy for me, says the 38-year-old.

V85 from Solvalla.

The round paid SEK 292,000 for the full pot on November 29.

For 38-year-old Joackim Björänge in Smedjebacken, Saturday was dramatic.

The small player, who with his own composed system with three spikes, bet 108 kroner, managed to get all the races and won a total of 302,000 kroner.

Joackim works in the steel industry. The interest in jogging comes from the family.

– Grandfather has always followed the trot since I grew up, he has inspired. I always play on Saturdays, and put around SEK 100-200, he says to Kanal 75.

Followed the drama on mobile

He followed Saturday’s V85 broadcast via mobile and it only got more and more exciting.

– I was good with it after six races. When the seventh sat, I simply did not dare to check the eighth, continues the 38-year-old.

When Carl Johan Jepson won the V85–8 with Pure Atlas, the win was a fact.

– I have never experienced such a shock before, he says.

Afterwards, it was celebrated with a hearty taco Saturday.

But the very first thing Joackim did was call his mother.

“Super happy for me”

A conversation he will never forget.

– I was shaking and couldn’t even speak. She was super happy for me.

The money will come in handy.

Among other things, he wants an upgraded Playstation, new slalom equipment and Christmas presents for the nephews.

In January, there will also be a trip to the home track Romme when they organize the V85.

– We had decided that before. It will be fun to go on a trot again, concludes the big winner.
