2 Millionaires Made at IE Resort Casino: Yaamava' Club Serano Winners Announced

In February, another lucky guest won a $2 million jackpot from a $50 slot machine bet, while a March player won $1.2 million on blackjack.

INLAND EMPIRE, CA — Yaamava' Resort & Casino saw two lucky winners within a few weeks of one another since February, they shared. A Los Angeles-area Club Serrano member's luck struck on a $1.2 million jackpot at a Blackjack game, and another won a $2 million progressive pot a few weeks before.

On Sunday, the club member— whose identity remained anonymous — placed a $100 plus a $25 progressive wager on a High Limit Blazing 7s Blackjack at the Yaamava' Casino, according to a spokesperson.

"The winning hand was a three-sevens diamond blackjack with the $25 progressive wager triggering the incredible bonus payout," they said.
