Incredible Luck: Three Card Player Wins Nearly $1 Million at Hard Rock Atlantic City
Date: 2024-08-28 Author: Robert Beloved Categories: POKER
This past weekend was truly a memorable one for one of the guests of the Hard Rock Atlantic City. Playing three-card poker, he managed to collect one of the rarest hands - a Royal Flush, which brought him an amazing win of $943,355.
The win attracts attention from other players
This event was one of the largest wins in the history of three-card poker at Hard Rock Atlantic City. Although the winner chose to remain anonymous, a representative of the casino confirmed the news to local publication NJ.com, noting that this was a significant case for Hard Rock.
“The lucky guest bet just $5 and won with a Royal Flush in the suit of clubs: Ace, King, Queen, Jack and 10,” a casino spokesperson said.
However, like any big win, this one comes with a significant tax liability. The player will have to pay a significant amount in taxes, leaving him with about a third of his winnings. In the end, after paying about $378,000 in taxes, he will be left with $565,500, which is still a significant amount for a bet of only $5.
No matter the size of the tax deduction, the remaining amount can still be life-changing. In New Jersey, lottery and casino winners have the right to remain anonymous, which means that the identity of this lucky winner will likely remain a mystery, and we may never know what he did with his sudden wealth.
New Jersey Players Riding a Lucky Wave
This notable win follows a string of big wins in New Jersey, especially in its famous lottery games. Just a month ago, another lucky player won the Jersey Cash 5 jackpot, one of the state’s most popular lotteries, taking home $295,216 for matching all the winning numbers, including the extra XTRA.
In June, another New Jersey resident also hit the jackpot in the same game, winning nearly $300,000. With odds of winning being 1 in 1.2 million, this win once again highlights how incredibly lucky you can be in these games. These winners also chose to remain anonymous, likely to avoid unwanted attention.
This latest win serves as a reminder that sudden fortune can strike at any time. Hard Rock Atlantic City will no doubt continue to attract guests hoping to replicate this remarkable success, which will likely be remembered for years to come. The anonymous winner can enjoy his windfall while reminiscing about the unforgettable weekend that changed his life.
