Scarlet Pearl Casino Has Three Jackpot Wins In One Night
Scarlet Pearl Casino in D’Iberville, Mississippi, had three jackpot winners last Friday night. This was highly unusual for the brick-and-mortar casino, but the three big hits extended this year’s string of slot machine wins.
Scarlet Pearl Casino jackpot wins consisted of $49,141.30, $86,038.09, and $99,800
“It was just like pop, pop, pop all day long,” said Angela Black, director of gaming operations at Scarlet Pearl Casino, when asked by Mary Perez of the Sun Herald.
The first jackpot was almost a $50,000 win. The player had bet only $1.80 when he hit the $49,141.30 jackpot playing dimes on a Mighty Cash in the high limits Orchid Room, Black said.
“What a return on your investment,” she said.
Hours later, a woman from Gulfport won $86,038.09 playing dimes on a Lock it Link in the Orchid Room.
Then another player won nearly $100,000 on a separate jackpot. A man from Iuka won $99,800 playing The Triple Blazing 7s Double game.
“A few hours later we had a gentleman hit for just under $100,000,” Black said.
Gambler who won nearly $100,000 was playing for high limit spins with $100 in machine
“What makes this one special is there were no taxes,” Black said of the $99,800 win.
The man was playing for high limit spins and put $100 in the machine. He played three spins when he hit the bonus round to spin 100 times.
Coast casinos in Mississippi saw a couple of other big winners last month.
On June 13, an unnamed player won $160,000 at Hard Rock Casino Biloxi in the casino’s high limits room.
The player bet $200 on the spin on the Double Diamond Deluxe slot machine and won the jackpot.
Five days later, Duane from Illinois won the $162,868.67 jackpot at IP Casino Biloxi on a $5 bet on Dollar Storm Caribbean Gold slot game by Aristocrat Gaming.
Scarlet Pearl Casino is located at 9380 Central Avenue in D’Iberville, Mississippi.
