A slot player from Hawaii hit an almost $790,000 jackpot at a downtown Las Vegas casino, then topped it off by winning another $5,000 while she was waiting to get paid, according to a news release.
The woman, who wasn’t identified, won the big prize Wednesday morning at the Fremont on a $15 wager on a Buffalo Inferno slot machine.
While waiting to collect her winnings, she started playing another machine, eventually winning another $5,000, the news release said.
The woman is a regular visitor to the downtown California, which is, along with the Fremont, a Boyd Gaming property.
The California has long been a favorite of visitors from Hawaii.
The Buffalo Inferno game is manufactured by Aristrocrat Technologies.
