TEMECULA, Calif. Sept. 22 - A San Diego County woman hit a $2,407,474.85 jackpot this afternoon at Pechanga Resort & Casino on an Indiana Jones penny slot machine, making her the second winner in less than a year to strike a jackpot of more than $1 million on the same bank of machines.

The jackpot comes less than a year after a Long Beach man played with pennies and went home a millionaire at Pechanga. In October 2009, the lucky winner struck a $1,061,225.26 Jackpot on the machine located directly behind the $2.4 million winner today.

“Pechanga has more slots than any other casino in California and far more than any in Las Vegas,” said Pechanga VP of Slots Buddy Frank. “It stands to reason that we also have more jackpots than anyone else. When someone wins a once-in-a-lifetime jackpot, it creates an excitement on the floor with both our guests and our Team Members.”

There is also a $100,000 Mega Share Bad Beat jackpot expected to hit this weekend in the Pechanga Poker Room as well. When this progressive poker jackpot hits, every active Texas Hold’em player in the Pechanga Poker Room will take home a share of the winnings. It is the first Mega Share Poker Jackpot ever to be offered in Southern California.
