Woman wins $527K on slots at Connecticut casino

Tammy M. Laraway of Westfield, Massachusetts hit the jackpot worth $526,914.74 after playing on a penny slot machine game at the Mohegan Sun Casino, Uncasville, Connecticut on Saturday eve.

Tammy recalled that she had been playing the exact same $20 over a 2-hour span prior to getting a $344 win, followed soon after a few moments by a jackpot of almost $527,000.

She said, "I was happy to win the $344. I just go down there once a month, if that. I hate to say that to the die-hard people who always play."

Tammy, with Cliff, her spouse of 25 years, operates several Subway franchises in Western Massachusetts. She said that when she thought of walking away after winning $344, her husband convinced her to keep on playing the Wheel of Fortune slot.

Luckily enough, she won the half-a-million dollar jackpot, which she initially thought was a prank her husband had somehow pulled off. "I thought I had been punk'd," She said with a laugh.

What will they do with the money?
She said, "We have four children in college, so it's already spent. In one hand and out the other."

Can you imagine wining half a million dollars..... from a slot machine? This is insane. But hey! I guess there are plenty of machines like this....! Interesting she was playing a penny slot... does that mean she was playing with really small denomination coin? This makes winning half a million even more astounding!

I am always glad to read about news,where people take money out of casino and when they score big!very nice amount for somebody who dont play so much at casino!spend it well and enjoy in that money!

well what this means is that lotsa people spend lotsa cash and now casino had the chance to give away some of it back and of course not forget itself in the process, so like it gave away 80-90% of money collected from thousands and thousands of players to one particular player and everyone seems to be thinking that casino was fcuked big time... think again

This is certainly a wonderful event and this woman was certainly very happy about such a victory ... now the most important thing is not to try to catch luck again to save what she already got .... nice to read about such events

Let's say 60-70 percent rather than more, live slots pay out worse RTP than the online ones IMO.

its always mother of four. at least four. Either that or russian miner from god forgotten place, who naturally decides to spend his last $2.35 to buy a lottery ticket and ends up winnig $4.000.000

i confess i have never won a jackpot, and i even bought bingo tickets twice. so im like 0/2 so far when it comes to jackpot wins Sad

The fact that she was playing for 2 hours only with 20$ was a good sign for the rest to come.
And of course after that good win of 344, you just stick there playing as much as you can.
Good choice, and an awesome prize from playing slots Smile

Wow, massive congratulations to Tammy from Massachusetts on winning the jackpot! There are many things you can buy with a half million dollars. Her husband Cliff and their four children must be very happy!

She played on a penny slot, of course her twenty bucks lasted for hours.

What are you talking about. Really...
A penny slot is the one that has a minimum of one cent.
That doesnt mean you play 1 cent (1line) in every spin.
If you play 20 lines its 20 cents per spin.
Can you hold 2 hours playing like that, with only 20$?

I don't understand how it's even possible to win 527,000$ US in slot machines. I mean slot machines have limits and even if you hit a jackpot it usually isn't more than a couple thousands. The jackpot multiplier is there to make sure the casino is going to win money in the long run, not lose.

Anyways I'm not sure if this story is true, half a million in a slot machine seems impossible to me. But I like it when casinos lose Blink
 Gerimantas09/04/2017 18:00:38 GMT
I think it is possible, i seen in my casino jackpot to slot players was something like 30k euros, and this was only three casino's connected together, so if tou have 30-50 or more casino's with many slots connected then I think such jackpots can be a real thing.
