Whether in northern or southern Nevada, winning seven figures on a slot machine is going to feel pretty good.

A player hit a $2,142,106 jackpot on a Wheel of Fortune progressive slots machine Wednesday at Silver Legacy Resort Casino in Reno, according to the International Game Technology Twitter feed.

Silver Legacy is part of Eldorado Resorts, which is working on a $17.3 billion acquisition of Caesars Entertainment Corp. that is slated to close next year.
