On June 3, Saturday, at the Arizona Charlie's Decatur, a lucky player hit the jackpot on IGT's Wheel of Fortune Lucky 7s slot machine. The jackpot prize was $1.67 million. The $1 progressive game has now been reset to[...] Read more » Las Vegas slot players won huge jackpots on weekend

yeah this is true that you can win life changing amounts of cash in the sin city and in many other casinos all around the world for that matter, especially if you play the progressive jackpot games, sure chances are small, but the payout is something worth giving a go.
Any jackpot will ever be won and so if the jackpot is already big then of course there is a chance of winning .... but also the jackpot can grow further and further and further and further and further and further .... in any case, luck to the players in an attempt to win this jackpot

Wow so many money these people win, $1,67 millions, i can only imagine what can be done with this money, you can buy a house a car and travel the world, and of course spend some more money on slots and maybe win more prizes
As it seems to me this is an ordinary advertisement for attracting players and whether the jackpot won in the near future is unknown ... when somebody will have to pay this jackpot and maybe the owners of the casino decide to hold this jackpot ... it seems to me that this is possible

All casinos have progressive slots, and if you are into slots, then at some point you will gamble a portion of your money on them. Usually they dont have good payouts, so if not chasing the progressive, players prefer playing the normal ones.

I can only imagine the feeling these players had when all the lights started flashing and all the bells started going off. I really hope that they are just recreational gamblers and don't give it all back

Congratulations to the winners. I have been to Arizona Charlie's (owned by American Casino & Entertainment Properties) on Decatur Boulevard only once. Unlike Wynn & Encore on the Strip, Arizona Charlie's is really not a lavish and luxurious establishment; it is more like a budget hotel with small casino, cafés, and restaurants.
As I understood it was an advertising action ...... if several players win big wins then people around also want this ..... and as it seems to me these winnings were in any case blocked by the money that people lost on the same day

Well if i knew that a big win had happened recently in a specific casino, then it would have been one that i wouldnt be visiting, for quite some time. What are the chances of it happening again? And it is better playing slots where the jackpot is already far from the reset.
