A Kansas City Chiefs fan got lucky twice Thursday night when his team won by a toe and he walked away with a $1.6 million jackpot win.  

Scott A., an Omaha, Nebraska resident, was visiting the Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino in Las Vegas, a part of Caesars Entertainment, to watch Thursday Night Football as his team kicked off their season against the Baltimore Ravens. As the Chiefs won 27-20, Scott A. was intrigued to try his luck at a table game, a press release from the hotel and casino giant said.

While playing Pai Gow Poker for over an hour and half, the Nebraska resident and Caesars Rewards member hit a Seven Card Straight Flush on the progressive jackpot, the release said. A progressive jackpot increases each time a game is played and no one wins the jackpot.  A flush is when five cards in the same cards match, WikiHow explains.

The release said his total winnings totaled $1,620,470. After hitting the million-dollar jackpot, Scott A. called his wife to celebrate both of his wins.  

What does the lucky football fan plan to do with his winnings?  

It’s not often that football fans win their football games and a million-dollar jackpot in the same day.  

Although this Chiefs fan did not provide specifics on what exactly he would do with his winnings, he does plan to invest the money, the release said.
