Two happy and lucky players won at Las Vegas gaming properties over the weekend. Their wins totaled $367K.

One of the patrons won $243,305 on The Blazing 7’s slot machine at Planet Hollywood Las Vegas Casino on Saturday. The winner’s name was not released. Nor were details on the spin.

Prior Vegas Wins

Over Halloween weekend, another lucky and happy guest at The Venetian Las Vegas won more than $1 million. The player was dealt a seven-card straight flush with a joker, KVVU, a local TV station, reported.

It was during a Face Up Pai Gow Poker game. There was a $5 side bet, too. That got them in the running for the Progressive jackpot, KVVU said. The total jackpot was $1,009,601.

Typically, in Pai Gow Poker, players are dealt seven cards. After one draw, players must make a two-card low hand and a five-card high hand, each as high as possible.

The name of The Venetian winner was kept private. Details on the win were not released.

The player hit the jackpot by matching three explosion symbols. It was on the Fu Babies bonus on the Dancing Drums Explosion slot machine. SG Gaming makes the Asian-themed machine.

In October, a player won $496,675.95 at Bally’s Las Vegas casino. It was on a Mega Progressive Jackpot. The unnamed visitor got a royal flush while playing three-card poker. The winner chose not to release his/her name.

In addition, a woman won $717,738.88 on a slot at the Fremont Hotel and Casino in October. She placed a $15 bet. It was her first spin, KLAS, another local TV station, reported. The total was received from a Grand Progressive jackpot.

The winner lives in Hawaii. Her name wasn’t released by the casino.
