Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady Celebrates $50 Million In Jackpot Payouts

Jackpot Milestone is Reached with Lucky Winner from Vermont

The gamble has certainly paid off for guests of Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady, where players have taken home more than $50,000,000 in jackpot payouts since the property’s grand opening last year.

The major milestone was just passed this week when a 62-year-old man from Stamford, Vermont, playing Wheel of Fortunes slots, hit a jackpot of $1510.

“We offer a wide variety of slot machines to our players, and are constantly introducing new games based on their feedback,” said Robert Long, General Manager of Rivers Casino & Resort Schenectady. “It’s exciting when any jackpot is hit, but reaching a milestone this big is definitely a great celebration.”
