Riverside Player Wins $1.5M Jackpot on Fortune Pai Gow at Yaamava' Casino
A Riverside resident has walked away with over $1.5 million after hitting a massive jackpot at Yaamava' Resort & Casino. The win took place on July 4, 2024, during a game of Fortune Pai Gow. Casino officials celebrated the rare payout as one of the largest this year.
The lucky player secured the $1,517,211 prize with a $25 base bet and an additional $5 progressive wager. Their winning hand was a seven-card straight flush, a rare outcome in the game. Kenji Hall, the resort's general manager, publicly congratulated the winner on their extraordinary luck.
This isn't the first major payout at Yaamava' in 2024. Earlier in the year, the casino awarded another player $1.3 million on Blazing Sevens Blackjack. Meanwhile, other big wins have been reported across the US. An Encore Las Vegas gambler recently took home $1,935,806.31 after playing Buffalo Power Pay on a $60 bet. Over in New Jersey, a Borgata Online player landed a $417,404 jackpot on Bison Fury with just an $18 wager. The same player had previously won $1 million on the same game.
The Riverside winner's $1.5 million jackpot adds to a string of high-value payouts in 2024. Yaamava' Resort & Casino has now handed out multiple seven-figure prizes this year alone. The casino's Fortune Pai Gow game continues to attract players hoping for similar luck.
