A Chiefs fan scores $1.6 million jackpot after Kansas City triumphs over Baltimore
A Kansas City Chiefs enthusiast enjoyed double luck on Thursday night, as his team clinched a close win and he scored a jackpot of $1.6 million.
Scott A., who lives in Omaha, Nebraska, went to the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, part of Caesars Entertainment, to watch the Chiefs kick off their season against the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday Night Football. While the Chiefs emerged victorious with a score of 27-20, Scott A. felt drawn to try his hand at a table game, as noted in a release from the casino.
After playing Pai Gow Poker for more than an hour and a half, the Nebraska local and member of Caesars Rewards landed a Seven Card Straight Flush on the progressive jackpot. According to the release, a progressive jackpot rises each time a player participates without anyone winning it. A flush occurs when five cards share the same suit, as defined by WikiHow.
His total earnings amounted to $1,620,470. Upon winning the massive jackpot, Scott A. immediately called his wife to revel in both of his victories.
What are the winning plans of the lucky football fan?
It’s rare for fans to simultaneously celebrate their team’s victory and a massive jackpot win on the same day.
While Scott A. hasn’t shared detailed plans for his winnings, he has expressed intentions to invest the money, as mentioned in the casino’s release.
