A mystery guest at the Aria Resort & Casino recently hit a $10.1M jackpot on a slot machine at the Las Vegas Strip gaming property.

The player from California stopped at the MGM Resorts property on a visit to the Strip, according to a Thursday tweet from IGT Jackpots.

The payout was on an IGT Megabucks Gold Forge slot game. The lucky guest made a $5 bet.

Player Gets Two $1M-Plus Wins

An unidentified guest won two jackpots recently on the same group of machines less than a week apart at Florida’s Seminole Casino Coconut Creek.

The local player won $1,493,111 on July 15. The same visitor collected $1,029,005 on July 21.

The wins were on a Dragon Link game provided by Aristocrat Gaming. The game displays a colorful Asian theme.

The win was the biggest payout at the Coconut Creek casino in the past month, according to a Hard Rock International spokesperson.

The casino is owned and operated by the Seminole Tribe of Florida.

Other Florida Payouts

On Tuesday, a lucky guest won $542,600 at Florida’s Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa.

He bet $100. No details on how long he was wagering on the machine.

The win was on IGT’s Enchanted Unicorn game. It features the mystical unicorn.

Earlier this summer, at Florida’s Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Hollywood a player won $1,042,996.65 on June 30.

The winner was described as a long-time visitor to the casino. June 30 was the first time he played the $1M Dragon Link on which he won.

He usually plays table games or video poker when visiting the gaming property.

Also in June, another player hit a $1,216,720.60 jackpot on the same game at the same gaming property.

Hard Rock International is owned and operated by the Seminole Tribe of Florida.

The Seminoles maintain a monopoly on slots outside of Miami-Dade and Broward counties in the tribe’s home state of Florida. The tribe also holds exclusive rights to most house-banked table games.

Sports Betting

The company revealed last month that the Hard Rock Sportsbook was renamed Hard Rock Bet.

The online gaming platform is operational in Arizona, Indiana, Ohio, Tennessee, and Virginia.

Also, the Hard Rock sports betting and iGaming app in New Jersey will be rebranded to Hard Rock Bet this summer.
