$1,501,338 Face Up Pai Gow jackpot hits at The Venetian in Las Vegas | Casinos & Games

An Abe from Illinois won a huge jackpot on the Las Vegas Strip – honestly!

Land of Lincoln visitor Abraham Jimenez was playing Face Up Pai Gow Friday morning at The Venetian when he was dealt a straight seven-card suit, according to a casino spokesman.

The guest’s $5 side bet triggered the resort’s Pai Gow progressive for $1,501,338.

This jackpot comes hot on the heels of the resort’s Millionaire Progressive jackpot, which was won on Wednesday for more than $3.8 million.
