LAKE TAHOE, CA (HBN) – How’s this for luck? A California man, Kurt Yoshio Kitajima, was down to his last 75 cents at a casino in Lake Tahoe. He then proceeded to win 1.3 Million Dollars!
Kitajima was apparently playing a game called “Wheel of Fortune” when he won the jackpot. You know, the game at casinos that looks like a complete rip-off - and actually is 99% of the time. He gambled his way down to a measly 75 cents before striking it rich at the Lakeside Inn and Casino in Stateline.
The Freemont, California native is reportedly is putting the money into his savings account. He should also probably steer clear of any more casinos. Although with this kind of luck, maybe he should just put $1,299,999.25 on a hand of blackjack. What the hell, right?
