A lucky visitor of the Mohegan Pennsylvania casino resort has struck gold, winning a jackpot of more than $642,000. The life-changing prize was won thanks to a side bet that increased the player’s chance of hitting the jackpot.

The winner, casino officials said, was a man from Plains Township. According to the gambling property, he was playing the Blazing 7’s Blackjack progressive table game.

The casino further noted that the winner’s hand consisted of three diamond-suited 7’s, dealt to both the player and the dealer. This 100% Mega event instantly secured the player the top jackpot prize.

Following the win, the progressive jackpot has been reset to $160,000.

According to Mohegan Pennsylvania, the winner has opted to remain anonymous.

Other Players Win Significant Jackpots

This is only the latest significant jackpot won by a player in Pennsylvania. A woman from the Commonwealth recently purchased a $20 scratch-off lottery ticket from a local gas station, winning a million dollars. This significant sum came just in time to comfort the woman’s dying husband.

Mohegan, meanwhile, continued to crown victors in other states too. In May, a Mohegan Sun visitor won a $483,622 prize playing blackjack at the tribal venue. According to the gambling operator, the jackpot was won on a blackjack table located in Casino of the Earth, which sports some 180,000 square feet of gaming and entertainment space.

In more recent news, a winner from Ohio just made history, sweeping the $140 million Powerball jackpot. The player successfully matched all winning numbers, which, at the time of the drawing, were 2, 26, 33, 55, 57, along with the red Powerball 22.

This marked the fifth Powerball win for the year. The previous jackpot, standing at $222.6 million, was won in June by a player from New Jersey.

Following the Buckeye player’s monumental win, the Powerball jackpot has been reset to $20 million.
