Well in the case of Katrina Bookman The choice was made for her. Meaning, she kinda didn’t have one. After trying her luck this past August, at Resorts World Casino, in Queens, NY, Ms. Boyd thought she had hit it big time, nearly $43 million dollars big, but instead was offered an unlikely alternative- dinner. A steak dinner to be exact.
Do you play the penny slots for the sole purpose to get watered-down vodka tonics? It turns out that you might actually win some real money from the penny slots. One lucky SOB took home more than $1.6 million by playing those dumb penny slots that your girlfriend makes you sit at while you only want to go to the blackjack table.
We take you to the Valley View Casino & Hotel in Valley Center, California, where one man won a ton of moolah. The gambling gentleman was playing the IGT Wheel of Fortune Ultra Wheels penny slot when he hit it big. Robert won $1,664,509.91 from his spin.
The man only identified as Robert S said this about his improbable payout, “I’m still in shock.” But it took two full days for the Valley View Casino & Hotel to finalize his payment that stressed out the winning gambler. “I couldn’t sleep for two days,” Robert said. “I was up tossing and turning and thought they would call me and say the machine malfunctioned.”
Robert was right to worry because one woman was not rewarded her jackpot because the casino said the “machine malfunctioned.” In 2016, Katrina Bookman won nearly $43 million while playing the Sphinx Slot Machine at Resorts World Casino in Queens, New York. The casino said the machine malfunctioned and she hadn’t won anything and offered her a steak dinner instead. Bookman ended up suing the casino for the winnings.
Robert says he plans to invest the money for the future and plans to start his retirement a couple of years earlier than he had planned. That is after the government takes their hefty cut.
Vegas Clicks gives you an idea on how low the odds are to hit a major jackpot on a slot machine:
In general, the higher the jackpot, the harder it is to hit. Exactly as you should expect. The lowest odds I’ve found are 1 in 32,768 (for a 1000-coin jackpot on a flavor of Red White & Blue), and the longest are 1 in 49,836,032, for Megabucks, which has a multi-million-dollar top prize.
Did Robert S set the reels? Now we take you to what we think may have been the exchange between the slot machine supervisor and the casino floor manager after the dude won $1.6 million on a penny slot.

Well in the case of Katrina Bookman… The choice was made for her. Meaning, she kinda didn’t have one. After trying her luck this past August, at Resorts World Casino, in Queens, NY, Ms. Boyd thought she had hit it big time, nearly $43 million dollars big, but instead was offered an unlikely alternative- dinner.

Yes, you’ve heard correctly. Bookman, pictured below with winning casino machine, went to cash in her earnings but was told that there was a glitch in the system and to return the following day while they worked out the solution. Well she did return and you know what she was told??? That there were no earnings and that she could have a steak dinner instead.

How insulting!
Resorts World Casino explained to Ms. Bookman that a machine malfunction, which has since been fixed, is the cause of the false win. Ms. Bookman, and attorney, are planning a lawsuit to settle matters with the casino that doesn’t involve her receiving the free dinner.
“I would at least like the maximum that the machine pays out, then I could treat him to a steak dinner!” – says Booman.
We hope that Ms. Bookman, former foster child, and single mother of three, who has hopes of helping her community, is rewarded with a fair and decent settlement.
But we won’t hold our breaths.
