First at the end of April, when a player walked away with $536,614.25 to their name from a progressive jackpot game, and now with the mid-May win of a player who took home $1,008,222, Four Winds New Buffalo Casino in Michigan has been in the news a lot, not to mention some of the exciting jackpot wins that dropped over the weekend.

Turning a Regular Wager into a Big Payday  

The lucky devil who won managed this feat by placing a $15 bet on the UFL Explosion slot machine, which resulted in a jaw-dropping payout. The casino in Hartford, New Buffalo, Dowagiac, and South Bend, has seen a significant uptick in winners since March in terms of jackpots.

Both people winning the aforementioned jackpots chose to remain anonymous and enjoyed their new-found riches privately, although they agreed to have their stories shared with the wider public, part of the casino’s marketing efforts. The casino’s chief operating officer, Mary Smith, was similarly pleased with these developments and celebrated the casino’s ability to cater to a diverse player base and offer everyone something that fits their taste.

“We’ve got a wide variety of exciting games and wager options to provide enjoyment for every guest’s preference and style. Winning life-changing jackpots is always a possibility,“ Smith explained. Although the big jackpot has dropped, this is an opportunity for players to participate in building it up or winning it early.

Jackpot wins have been rather frequent across casino floors in the United States. Last week, we ran a roundup of all the jackpots that have been won in recent weeks, with many of the sums exceeding the seven-figure threshold. The Four Winds New Buffalo Casino does not expect you to always bet big to win.

From Pennis to Riches

Quite the opposite. A player who was attending the casino’s floor in mid-May and playing at a Shamrock Fortune slot machine managed to walk away with a $80,874.92 jackpot off an 80-cent bet, one of the biggest margins won on the casino’s floor.

Michigan has been an interesting place for jackpot winners. Earlier this month, a state resident won the Lotto 47 jackpot worth $7.19 million, the state’s largest to have been secured from the lottery. Another lucky devil had a near-miss with the big Mega Millions payday, but still managed to win $1 million instead.

Not only that but over the weekend, another lucky soul won $1,166,351 from the Coin Trio Fortune Trails slot machine. The casino paid a total of more than $1.5 million in jackpot prizes over the weekend, according to the casino’s official X account.

A gambler from Schaumburg, Illinois, was visiting the Four Winds Casino in New Buffalo for a few bets. The guest, who chose to remain anonymous, however, did not expect to return home 536,614-dollar-richer.

According to the operator, the Illinois gambler was playing a Dollar Storm Wild Ninja slot machine at the casino on April 28 when they hit the jackpot. The jackpot was won on a $5 bet, the Four Winds casino noted.

Dollar Storm Wild Ninja sports a progressive jackpot that increases over time. At the time of the Illinois gambler’s win, the jackpot stood at $536,614.25.

This is not the first time a Four Winds Casino property has paid out such a significant sum. The tribal casino chain operates four casinos across Michigan and Indiana and has paid out a whopping $3.2 million in jackpots since March.

Two of the most recent ones included a $177,894.30 progressive jackpot that was won on April 30 by a guest player from Indiana. The player in question was enjoying a Double Blessings slot machine at Four Winds South Bend and won the jackpot on a $0.88 bet.

Another visitor from Indiana won a $104,500 jackpot on May 2 after placing a $100 bet. That player was tackling a Mystical Mermaids slot machine at Four Winds South Bend. All players in question preferred to remain anonymous.

Four Winds Is Happy to Change Players’ Lives

In an official statement, Four Winds Casinos’ chief operating officer, Mary Smith, expressed her team’s excitement about the recent jackpots. She said:

Four Winds Casinos is very excited for all our guests that have recently won significant and life-changing jackpots at one of our four casino locations as well as our online casino.

Mary Smith, COO, Four Winds Casinos

The casino company confirmed that the progressive jackpots have now been reset.

Speaking of gambling in the region, a player from Indiana recently won $2,200 on a slot machine at the Blue Chip Casino in Michigan City. The man, however, asked another person to collect his winnings on his behalf to avoid having his ID scanned since he was falling behind schedule in terms of child support.

The man was charged with Level 6 felony cheating at gaming at La Porte Superior Court 4 and faces up to 30 months in prison.
