$100,000 Wildwood Casino win in Cripple Creek at ‘Buffalo Blackjack’ table

CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo. (KKTV) - A man visiting Colorado is leaving $100,000 richer.

Wildwood Casino is reporting 32-year-old Brian from Kansas won $100,166 playing “Buffalo Blackjack” in Cripple Creek. The big win came on Saturday after Brian placed a Progressive bet before he was dealt a suited, three-of-a-kind with three aces hand. According to Wildwood Casino’s general manager, Matt Andrighetti, the chance of getting the hand is about 1 in 250,000!
