(US).- At Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Tampa, Florida, a lucky player hit a life-changing USD 1,303,247.52 jackpot on IGT's legendary MegaJackpots slot machine, Wheel of Fortune. The fortunate player, who wished to remain anonymous, was casually playing USD 5 Wheel of Fortune Double Diamonds, when the most-loved slot machine of all-time sounded, signaling a big jackpot win.
When the winner realized he had won the million-plus jackpot, he was overcome with a feeling of gratitude, acknowledging the extra money will allow him to "help his kids a little more." The winner stated that right before placing the winning-wager, he looked to his wife and advised that he was going to win for her - and well, he did.
