A North Carolina man won nearly $100,000 on a slot machine at a southeast Las Vegas casino on Monday.

Boyd Gaming said in a statement that the Sam’s Town guest, who asked to remain anonymous, was playing a 90 cent bet on the Triple Stars slot machine around 3 p.m. when he hit a $97,302 jackpot.

Last month, another Boyd Gaming guest hit a million dollar jackpot on a Wheel of Fortune slot machine at Main Street Station.
