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.
