A Hawaiian resident turned a stay at Boyd Gaming’s Fremont Hotel and Casino into a $1,098,478 payday when she hit a giant jackpot on IGT’s Wheel of Fortune slots last weekend.

The player, who requested to remain anonymous, parlayed a $5 spin into the major prize  Saturday evening playing IGT’s Wheel of Fortune Gold Spin Triple Gold Slots.

This is the second large jackpot scored by a Hawaiian resident visiting a Boyd Gaming downtown Las Vegas property in the last two months.

On Oct. 7, a long-time Boyd Gaming customer from Hawaii hit a $930,000 jackpot at Main Street Station Casino Brewery Hotel. The lucky player was staying just across the street at Boyd Gaming’s California Hotel and Casino.
