A Las Vegas Valley resident has won big after playing at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas.

The Strip resort reported Wednesday that a “Las Vegas local” won a $102,225 jackpot on the 25 cent 5 Play Poker machine.

Cosmopolitan may be for sale

Last month, the company that owns The Cosmopolitan retained two investment banks to explore the possible sale of the 3,000-room Strip resort.

The property would be the first major operating casino on the Strip to go on the market in more than a decade.
