Poker player wins life-changing prize with rare hand at Vegas casino. ‘What a win!’
A poker player won a life-changing jackpot with a rare hand at a Las Vegas casino.
Now, the gambler is $207,504 richer.
The lucky visitor was at the South Point Hotel and Casino, the casino said in a Feb. 18 Facebook post.
The guest sat at a Pai Gow poker table and ended up with a seven-card straight flush, one of the rarest hands in the game, according to Upswing Poker.
A straight flush happens when a player’s cards are in sequential order and in the same suit.
The gambler’s winning cards were an ace, 2, 3, 5, 6 and 7 with a Joker wild card representing the 4 in hearts.
“Congratulations to our lucky guest who hit the Pai Gow Progressive for an incredible $207,504 with a seven-card straight flush! What a win!” the casino said in the post.
South Point Hotel and Casino is a less than 10-mile drive south from the Strip.
