Las Vegas (KSNV) — Five lucky winners are heading home with some money in their pocket after a recent visit to the Las Vegas Strip.

A Monday, officials with Caesars Entertainment announced that five people had hit five and six-figure jackpots, totaling over $800,000 over the weekend.

Caesars Palace awarded three of those jackpots after an unidentified guest won $100,000 after winning a jackpot playing video poker and another won a slots jackpot for $146,358, both on Friday night. Two days later, a third guest won $100,000 after hitting a video poker jackpot.

Visitor Douglas Zuckermann of San Bruno, California also took home $372,890 in jackpot winnings on Saturday, October 14 after playing Ultimate Texas Hold'em poker at O'Sheas Irish Pub inside The LINQ. Officials say he was visiting Las Vegas on vacation and won the massive jackpot after flipping over a Royal Flush after his fourth hand. Zuckermann says he plans on using the winnings to pay off his student loans.

Finally, on Sunday, October 15 just before midnight, visitor Ryley Koch of South Carolina won $94,613 after hitting a Mega Progressive jackpot playing Let It Ride poker at Horseshoe Las Vegas. Koch was visiting Las Vegas to golf/gamble and won the jackpot with a Royal Flush after just 15 minutes at the table.
