California casino pays out major progressive1 March 2012PLACERVILLE, California -- (PRESS RELEASE) -- Red Hawk Casino had another big win with a $161,154 Fortune King (R) penny slot progressive jackpot Tuesday morning. Liza from Sacramento came to Red Hawk Casino early on Tuesday, Feb. 28 to relax with friends on their day off from work. Liza works two jobs and enjoys spending time at Red Hawk Casino because the team members are friendly and the casino is always clean and inviting. Liza said she doesn't normally play the max bet on slot machines, but after playing for less than an hour she and her friends were ready to go, so she pressed the max bet button. With that push of the button Liza hit the progressive jackpot for $161,154. Liza could not believe her eyes and says, "Always play max bet, that's the only way to win!" Liza's daughter is in college and they have been sharing a car, so she will use a portion of the jackpot to buy a car for her daughter. She's also planning on sending money to help her family in the Philippines, and says, "A win like this is worth millions to my family in the Philippines." Liza still plans to work two jobs, but would love to trade one for a job at Red Hawk Casino. Red Hawk Casino, along with over 300 other Tribal casinos across the nation, belongs to a 17 state Native American progressive gaming network. Any time a coin is played in a linked machine, anywhere in the network, the cumulative jackpot continues to grow until it is won. |
