Get ready to feel a surge of irrational confidence, because somebody actually won big at Potawatomi Hotel & Casino this weekend.
A West Bend man – who, according to Potawatomi, wishes to remain anonymous – turned a 50-cent bet on a penny "The Hangover" slot machine into a $1 million jackpot. His lucky pull marks the eighth prize of a million or more dished out by Potawatomi.
The guest was still far from the largest prize awarded at the casino, that honor belonging to a Milwaukee man who won $2.7 million while playing a $5 "Wheel of Fortune Double Diamond" machine back in 2010.
