The Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa, which promotes itself as the “Luckiest Casino in the United States,” has a heater.

A fortunate visitor, Maher O., recently experienced a day at Hard Rock's Tampa location, according to a story that is undoubtedly too fantastic for many to believe.  According to the Seminole Tribe of Florida-owned business, Maher won 389 jackpots totaling $1,827,160.80 on Friday, July 25.

"Stories like this show just how exciting and rewarding a visit to Seminole Hard Rock Tampa can be,” said Joseph Wagner, vice president and assistant general manager of Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Tampa. “This guest’s incredible day is certainly unique and it’s always thrilling to see someone have such an unforgettable experience.”

Maher won $170,678.18 on Lock It Link, $99,350 on Panda Magic Link, and $258K from two handpays on Golden Century Dragon Link, among other jackpots.  The two other link games that contributed significantly to Maher's sudden wealth were created by Aristocrat Gaming, while Lock It was produced by Light & Wonder.

"Crazy" Day

A link to Maher's Instagram feed, where he frequently posts videos of himself winning at slots, was included in Hard Rock's statement regarding his most incredible day.  It's unclear if Maher used any promotional play as a gamble.  Maher is a SCUBA "divemaster" with OCD Divers, according to his Instagram feed.  He has never before advertised Hard Rock or any other casino.

Maher described his day as a "blessing" to Casino.org.

"I never had so many handpays in one day. Basically, every machine I touch paid me a few times. I usually get a few handpays in a regular visit, but not crazy like this,” he added.

He was probably betting large amounts of $200 to $1,000 per spin in order to reach 389 handpays.  According to Hard Rock Tampa, the denominations of its high-limit slots can reach $1,000. 

The Casino's Greatest Days 

"What's the most jackpots you've hit in one day at a casino?" is the question posed in a Reddit topic with several comments.

 A few gamers responded that they had never won $1,200 or more on a slot machine or a handpay.  However, one individual claimed to have made 32 handpays in one day.

Looking through the entire thread, most people said they had never won more than five handpays in a single trip, and nobody claimed to have hit more than 50 in a single day.
