Husband uses wife’s $20 on Las Vegas slot machine — and wins life-changing jackpot
A woman gave her husband $20 to gamble with at a Las Vegas casino — and he ended up winning a massive jackpot.
The couple was at the Rampart Casino, which is about a 15-mile drive northwest from the Strip, the casino said in a Dec. 7 news release.
The husband ran out of gambling money, so the wife gave him a $20.
He took the money to a Dollar Storm slot machine, “betting $1 on two-cent denominations,” the casino said.
After about 10 minutes of playing, a jackpot message appeared saying he had won $945,119.
“We’re especially thrilled when our local community members experience such life-changing moments,” the resort’s vice president and general manager, Michelle McHugh, said in the release.
Another gambler recently hit a huge jackpot prize on the same game but at a different casino in Vegas.
The visitor was at Binion’s Gambling Hall & Hotel when they bet $2.50 on a Dollar Storm slot machine and won over $138,000, McClatchy News reported.
