In the neon-drenched early hours of a Las Vegas morning, a Resorts World casino guest transformed a $5 bet into a staggering $11.1 million jackpot. This win, which occurred just before 6 a.m., was the first-ever Megabucks jackpot to be hit at the property, as News3LV reports. The visitor, in town to see family, played IGT's Megabucks Mega Vault slot game for roughly 15 minutes before striking it rich.
Witnessed by their spouse and family, the winning moment couldn't have come as a more surprise. As they watched the reels fall into place, their routine family visit to Las Vegas was upended by a life-changing twist of fate, according to 8 News Now. Officials from Resorts World expressed that the jackpot marks a significant milestone for the casino, adding another layer of excitement as the holiday season approaches.
Resorts World is also highlighting its Dragon Link progressive jackpot, which is nearing $1.8 million. This jackpot is exclusive to the casino floor.
