Gambler playing card game wins one of the biggest jackpots at Connecticut casino
A lucky gambler playing a card game won one of the biggest jackpots at a Connecticut casino. Now the player is a millionaire.

Spanish 21 is a variation of blackjack where a player has to get a hand that adds up to 21. But unlike blackjack, all 10s have been removed from the deck. 'The guest was playing the optional $5 Bonus Spin Xtreme side bet and spun Triple Diamonds which landed them a whopping $2,018,742.30!' the casino said. The casino said it's the largest win this year, and the fifth-largest 'table game payouts ever at Mohegan Sun.' Other players also won big prizes at the casino recently.

Caitlin Clark's Official All-Star Game Vote Total Is Insane
Caitlin Clark's Official All-Star Game Vote Total Is Insane originally appeared on The Spun. It's not hyperbole to say that Caitlin Clark is something the WNBA has never quite seen before. While the league has had its share of very talented women come and go, few if any have had the type of star power that Clark has brought to the W— as evidenced by her 2025 All-Star vote. Advertisement This year Clark received 1.29 million All-Star votes. Which to put it in perspective, is more than the top 30 vote getters from the 2023 ASG combined (1.17 million). Fans were blown away by Caitlin's numbers on X. "Clark has changed the entire game of WNBA basketball," a user said. "Still don't think she IS the needle ??" another asked. "Argue with a wall as far as im concerned," a fan replied. "You dont have to like her, but never diminish her motion! No one moves the needle like she does 🪡" "I think I voted at least 500+ with different emails, on my phone, laptop, iPad etc 😂" another person laughed. Advertisement "She's that girl 🫡" "So proud of this and so happy for CC," another user commented. "She deserves it all, she is the needle, she is the face." "League of her own," another fan posted.
