"I must be the luckiest flu victim in the world," Mr Packer told the newspaper.
He added: "I still couldn't actually believe it as I am not a gambler and never go into the bookies. It took me a full day to realise it wasn't a dream. It was the best tonic in the world and pretty soon I was feeling much better."
William Hill recently announced that gamers won £750,000 on progressive jackpot slot machines over a 30-day period on its online casino service.
