Last Thursday night, a Caesars Rewards member had a stroke of luck when he hit a seven-card straight flush on the progressive jackpot playing pai gow poker at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. Scott A., visiting from Omaha, NE, had been playing for an hour and a half when he struck gold, winning a cool $1,620,470.
When asked about his initial reaction, Scott said his first thought was to call his wife. The lucky player visited the casino that night for a football game and stated that he plans to invest his winnings.
