For anyone who needs solid proof that dreams can come true - here it is.

A Monmouth County man became an instant millionaire on Saturday, Feb. 13, when he hit a $1.1 million MEGA jackpot on a progressive poker game after placing a $5 wager at Tropicana Atlantic City.

After his big win, longtime Tropicana customer Frank Nagy offered a generous $50,000 tip to the dealers on shift.

“We are thrilled to celebrate this huge win with one of our longtime customers at Tropicana,” says Steve Callender, Regional President for Caesars Entertainment Atlantic City. “This weekend’s MEGA jackpot is the latest example of the power of Caesars Rewards and our portfolio of resorts in the market, offering guests more ways to earn and redeem rewards – and win – in Atlantic City.”

The win marks the largest MEGA jackpot on a progressive poker game in Caesars Entertainment’s history. The last time the jackpot hit was August 2019.

In order to be eligible, guests had to try their luck on a progressive game at Tropicana, Caesars or Harrah’s Resort. Eligible games included Four Card Poker, Let It Ride, Three Card Poker, Ultimate Texas Hold’em, Mississippi Stud Poker, and Texas Hold’em Poker, located in each casino’s table games section.
