If you love football, then you need to cash in on your passion. This is what's happened to three football fans and players on the SportPesa gaming platform, Monday morning. They cashed in on their passion for the game and they each received a whooping sh. 8,819,633 as a split for last week’s Mid Week Jackpot.

One is a mechanic, Jackson Gitahi from Murang’a County. The other is a farmer, Nicholas Kirui from Kuresoi, Molo. The third is Daniel Sumaili from Tassia, Embakasi.

We were with them when they received their cheques in Nairobi after winning an equal share of last week’s KSh26,458,899 Mid Week Jackpot for correctly predicting the outcome of all the select 13 games.

"With this money, I can now construct a house to live in and start farming new crops,” the Manchester United FC supporter told.

Several other gamers were awarded cash for their good attempt at the jackpot as follows:
