PRESS RELEASE
October 19, 2010
Joseph G. of Folsom, Calif. was the lucky winner of Red Hawk™ Casino's first
Fortune Pai Gow Poker Progressive™ jackpot of $131,707 on Thursday, October 14.
Red Hawk Casino has now paid out an impressive $2,675,182 in just eight
progressive jackpots since July!
Joseph G. had only been at the casino for a couple hours playing slots and
decided to switch things up by moving over to the Pai Gow Poker table. Within a
half hour, Joseph was dealt the seven-card straight flush and because he placed
a progressive bet, he was in for a big treat, a $131,707 progressive jackpot!
Joseph has been coming to Red Hawk Casino since it opened and said it's his
favorite casino because it's so close to home and the employees always treat him
great. When asked what he plans to do with his winnings, Joseph said that he
hadn't even thought that far ahead yet, but that he definitely planned to gamble
some more that day.
Red Hawk Casino added the Fortune Pai Gow Poker Progressive to its casino floor
in June. The Fortune Pai Gow Poker Progressive allows players to make a small
progressive wager in addition to their standard Pai Gow Poker wager to be
eligible to win a progressive jackpot in addition to their odds payouts. The top
hand in the game, a seven-card straight flush, pays 8,000 to 1 and 100 percent
of the jackpot.
This is just one of eight progressive jackpots to hit at Red Hawk Casino since
July. Steven M. from Citrus Heights, Calif., celebrated his birthday by winning
an $118,848 progressive jackpot on a Wheel of Fortune quarter progressive slot
machine on Sunday, October 17. Another lucky winner hit a $161,828 progressive
jackpot on a Fortune King™ penny slot machine on Saturday, October 9. James R.,
of Sacramento, Calif., won a $270,000 progressive jackpot playing on an IGT

belongs to a 17 state Native American progressive gaming network. Any time a
coin is played in a linked machine, anywhere in the network, the cumulative
jackpot continues to grow until it is won.
