When one goes clubbing in downtown Las Vegas, it might mean checking out the music scene in some establishments. For a visitor from Hawaii, it had a different connotation.
The visitor won a $446,083 progressive jackpot on Fortune Pai Gow Poker on Friday night at the Fremont, according to a Boyd Gaming spokesperson.
The winning hand was a seven-card club straight flush with an eight through ace and using the joker as the nine. In pai gow, the joker can be used as an ace or to complete a straight and/or flush.
