Poker player hits jackpot with rare hand in Las Vegas. What were the winning cards?
A poker player walked away with a massive jackpot prize from a casino in Las Vegas, thanks to a rare hand.
Now, the gambler is more than $300,000 richer.
The guest sat at a Pai Gow poker table at Durango Casino & Resort, the casino said in a Nov. 27 post on X, formerly known as Twitter.
The visitor ended up with a seven-card straight flush, one of the rarest hands in the game.
A straight flush happens when all cards are in sequential order and in the same suit.
“A straight flush represents one of the rarest and strongest hands you can make in a game of poker,” according to Upswing Poker.
The lucky gambler’s winning cards were 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, jack and a joker acting as a queen.
“Peace out to the holiday weekend! Congratulations to one of our lucky guests who just hit a seven card straight flush for $322,633 on our $2 Pai Gow Progressive! PLUS an additional $10,000 on the fortune bonus side bet,” the casino said.
Durango Casino & Resort is about about a 10-mile drive southwest from the Strip.
