Two Millionaires. Six Days. One Casino.

TEMECULA, Calif., March 3, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- For the second time in less than one week, a slot player at Pechanga Resort & Casino in Temecula, Calif. has hit a mega jackpot. At 12:45p.m. on Monday, Sergio Alvarez from Perris, Calif. became the newest millionaire in Riverside County, scoring $1,050,009.21 on a $1.00 Golden Pagodas Gold Series slot machine by Rocket Gaming. After only 20 minutes and $100 played on the machine, Alvarez watched as three illuminated "Golden Pagoda" symbols lined up across the center of the screen. 

"I knew I won," said the retired iron worker. "There's this line across the bottom of the screen that shows how much you win. It said the amount, but it took me a minute to believe it."

Sergio Alvarez said he visits Pechanga Resort & Casino about once a month, and enjoys going to the resort's buffet. One of his two sons cheered him on as a crowd gathered around Sergio and the slot machine as he posed for a few photos. 

"This second million dollar jackpot in one week at Pechanga Resort & Casino is tremendous," said Buddy Frank, Vice President of Slot Operations at Pechanga Resort & Casino. "We are so thrilled for our winners and they are living proof that winners are made every day here."

Last Tuesday, February 24, Rocio H. from Chino Hills, Calif. watched as zombie symbols lined up on the Walking Dead slot machine she was playing. She hit the progressive jackpot for $1,053,775.64 just before 2:00p.m. that day.

The last million-dollar jackpot before The Walking Dead windfall at Pechanga Resort & Casino was on Thanksgiving Day in November 2014. The Monday jackpot marks the 11^th more-than-one million dollar jackpot won at Pechanga Resort & Casino. Four of those jackpots have been won on Gold Series slots by Rocket Gaming, the most wins on this game in the country according to slot officials.
