TEMECULA, Calif. – (Dec. 26, 2022) – In the hours before most West Coast United States residents knew whether Santa stopped by their houses, he paid a visit to one patron at Pechanga Resort Casino. At 4:45 a.m. as she played the popular 5 Times-10 Times Pay slot machine in the casino near Temecula, winning symbols lined up across the screen. Two 10x symbols plus one symbol with three bars meant the Baldwin Park, Calif. guest sleighed home with $300,000.00 from her early morning play.
Wishing not to give a name, the guest did not immediately know what they would do with the windfall.
