Pai Gow Poker is a popular game at both land and live casinos. The game has gained even more popularity since it has been created into a progressive jackpot game at many land casinos. One of the casinos that have added the progressive pai gow poker game is the Rampart Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada. The casino recently announced a big winner from the game.

On December 1st, Dennis Perkins of California was playing the Progressive Pai Gow Poker game at the casino when he was dealt a seven card straight flush. This hand won Perkins the $92,204 primary progressive prize and $5,000 from the fortune bonus. This gave Perkins a total prize of $97,204.

The Rampart Casino added the new Pai Gow Game just over a year ago and since that time the casino has given away just over $740,000 in cash prizes. The prize for the progressive Pai Gow game now sits at just over $40,000 since the December 1st win.

Players can make a small wager on the progressive when playing the Pai Gow game along with their Pai Gow wager and they are then eligible to win the jackpot as well as their odds payout. The seven card straight flush is the top hand in the game and it pays 8,000 to 1 with the winner getting 100% of the jackpot.
