It's Just Not Normal

Most gamblers dream of hitting the jackpot just once in their lifetime. With land and online casinos jackpots in the millions, that’s all one would conceivable really need to get by comfortably for the rest of their life. One luck land casinos gambler just hit the maximum jackpot at the slots for the second time in his life – something that just doesn’t happen very often. Elmer Sherwin, a 92 year old Las Vegas player, won a $21.1 million jackpot last week at the Megabucks slot machine at the Cannery.

The gambling industry news has certainly reported bigger winnings than the player’s $21.1 million win – between the online casinos and progressive jackpots, but this twice in a lifetime just defies the odds. Analysts in the land and online casinos industry claim that Sherwin overcame odds of 10 million to one both times that he hit the winning numbers.

He previously took home a jackpot of $4.6 million playing slots at the Mirage in 1989 – which was quite a chunk of change considering the value of the dollar almost 20 years ago. Sherwin is a regular land gambler – at 92 he hasn’t taken to the online casinos craze, but he is “glad [he] finally hit” and commented that he had been “trying to do it again” ever since.

He is walking away now with winnings of $25.7 million just from gambling at the casinos – and though some would think that winning a second time is enough to make any player happy, Sherwin commented that he would soon try for a third jackpot.
