One visitor of Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel took home close to $140,000, while another one bagged a sweet $1.5 million jackpot
A couple of fortunate gamblers scored huge jackpots after recently visiting a downtown Las Vegas casino.
That is the case for two Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel visitors who took home a jackpot each after playing casino games at the popular casino on Fremont Street. Binion's confirmed on Friday that an incredibly lucky Dollar Storm player hit the jackpot on a tiny $2.50 bet.
The name of the lucky winner is Donna, and after triggering the game's Coin Grab bonus, she was able to collect the Super Grand Jackpot for a mouth-watering $138,697.28 jackpot. The popular downtown casino didn't disclose further details regarding the fortunate winner. Still, Binion's congratulated the lucky woman for the six-figure win and asked who is going to be the next fortunate visitor to take home a sweet jackpot.
"Dollar Storm? More like $138,000 Dollar Storm! A HUGE congrats to Donna, who hit the Coin Grab bonus while playing at Binion's and landed the Super Grand Jackpot -- over $138,000! Way to go, Donna! Who's next to strike it big,"
Shortly after the Dollar Storm jackpot, another fortunate player at Binion's scored a mouth-watering prize. That was the case for a Texas resident who played the Wheel of Fortune slot game. To the surprise of the lucky winner, named Chad, he scored a 3x, 4x and 5x on the pay line of the slot game for a whopping $1.5 million jackpot.
To be exact, Chad's win was $1,494,585 and the casino confirmed that the man had been playing the $5 Wheel of Fortune slot for only five minutes before hitting the jackpot. "The wins keep coming at Binion's, could you be next," wrote the popular downtown Las Vegas casino in a post on Facebook together with a video depicting the lucky winner with a thumbs up.
Besides the two wins at Binion's Gambling Hall and Hotel, a visitor of Red Rock Casino Resort and Spa in Las Vegas also scored a jackpot. The lucky guest was enjoying Four Card Keno.
Placing a $16 bet, the fortunate Red Rock Casino visitor hit a $34,680 jackpot. Not much else is known about the lucky winner so it is likely that their identity will forever remain a mystery. Still, whoever that was, they will undoubtedly always remember their visit to the popular Sin City casino.
