Texas visitor scores $1.3M poker hand win at Nevada casino
Sometimes your friends have good advice.
The friends of Dorothy Boone of Temple, Texas, advised her to take a family trip to Lake Tahoe. She chose wisely.
Boone hit a Three Card Poker progressive jackpot Monday night at Harveys Lake Tahoe to win a jackpot of $1,340,518.
According to Caesars Entertainment spokesperson Chelsea Ryder, Boone had been playing for about an hour when she hit a royal flush in spades. It was a first time Lake Tahoe visit for Boone and her husband, which almost didn’t happen as their group originally had planned to visit Laughlin.
Boone said she is looking forward to using the money to buy a new house and take her grandchildren to Disney World or Disneyland.
Dorothy took her friends recommendation and made a family trip to Lake Tahoe.
Last night she won the progressive jackpot on the 3 Card Poker table for OVER $1M at Harveys. 🎉CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR BIG WIN DOROTHY 🎉 pic.twitter.com/wEgVj6WRtw— Harveys Tahoe (@harveystahoe) February 19, 2020
