Why would they not?? Lol

[Slipknot26]

Nice fukkin hit

[JIBBBY]

Why would they not?? Lol

I've read stories on slot winners that hit the jack and got stiffed. Small casinos. You never know until you get paid..

Ace high straight flush is impressive though.. The dream hand!!!

[jts1207]

Yeah....this isn't slot's. Got to pay.

Right, but any casino that wants to stay in business is gonna pay out lol and i wonder what the odds on getting that hand are

[JIBBBY]

I reads ya JTS and Venom the odds are 1 in 20,348,320.

[cankid]

sick hand deserves 10 Millions for that hand

[JIBBBY]

That's a 6 card straight flush ace high and not a 5 card just in case some of you clowns didn't catch that..

Damn, dude basically hit the lotto

Did they check his sleeves? Why is he wearing a wind jacket indoors?

[reigle9]

love this shit, hate that he's gonna blow most of it on his granddaughters art school tuition before she drops out, but neat story

[JIBBBY]

Long sleeves..

Something else that's not noted here is that it's only on the Diamond suit that's a million dollar payout.

All other suits are only $100,000.

Believe it or not, I was playing Pai Gow at Tropicana this past summer and I hit 3 Royal Flushes in less than an hour.

I can almost guarantee that no one has ever hit 3 Royal Flushed in 1 hour.

It's dice shaker and not the automatic position selector. I got myself 2 Royal Flushes when I banked and shook the number myself and the other was by the dealer when I was playing one on one and I was moving all over the table playing whatever seat number I felt was good.

What's stupid of all is that not once I bet that $5 to hit 200 to 1 payout on 3 Royal Flushes.

I was wondering what was meant by the 100k diamond suite....until i realized he meant suit

[KVB]

Just wow.

I don't think I've ever heard of anyone hitting one of these.

[jjgold]

Great win!!!

[mikejamm]

Hell of a nice hit! Looks like a long time player who finally hit that royal. Sometimes the stars line up just right.

They're paying this one hard to back out of a clean card bet.

Borgata will do him right.

They're asking him for copies of his passport, utility bills and will send him a code by mail to verify his identity and then deny him when the code never arrives.

I like how Harold M. withheld his last name for privacy reasons then let them run with a picture.

Sorry, corrected it to suit.

[DJK]

Just wow.

I don't think I've ever heard of anyone hitting one of these.

A dealer named Nick at Caesars whom I have known for many years told me that he dealt a woman a Royal Flush this past summer which would have won a million dollars too but she didn't bet $5.

[sourtwist]

Sorry, corrected it to suit.

No big deal man...i was confused

Many wouldn't be surprised by that

[DJK]

Just wow.

I don't think I've ever heard of anyone hitting one of these.

Also, I was at Harrah's like 1/2 year ago when a really old lady who looked like she was ready to croak hit a rolling jackpot of over $650,000 because she got a Royal Flush in Three Card Poker. Everyone at the table was jumping up and down being happy for her and also getting an Envy payout and yet she wasn't smiling or nothing. Just sitting there without any emotion. It looked to me like that win meant nothing to her. The dealer who dealt that hand told me she is there everyday sitting at the same seat (the last seat).

After tax, it was probably less than $500,000 payout.

Wow!

Good for that guy!

[clockwise1965]

Sick!! Congratulations.

always the oldies!

I could believe that..

I don't trust rinky dink casino's in a long shot million dollar payout situation with no one around. I'd like to know if he gets paid in the end.

They just don't hand you a suit case filled with a million dollars in cash or cashiers check in those spots. Taxation is considered and identity verification comes into play for sure.

I'd be taking pictures, notify everyone and the news, I do everything to make this win known.. Looks like this guy did that.

[stevek173]

Whiskey, Viagra, hookers and blow for THAT GUY!

[pilebuck13]

Think he tipped the dealer much? I bet 1k tip
