Four Winds has announced that a lucky W Club member from Fort Wayne, Ind., won a $1.53 million progressive jackpot at Four Winds Hartford.
The jackpot was hit Thursday on a Monopoly Around the Globe penny machine and is one of the largest jackpots ever hit at either Four Winds New Buffalo or Four Winds Hartford.
Four Winds New Buffalo and Four Winds Hartford, along with more than 300 other tribal casinos across the nation, belong to a 17 state Native American progressive gaming network. Any time a coin is played in a linked slot machine, anywhere in the network, the cumulative jackpot continues to grow until it is won.
Four Winds Hartford opened in August and is located at 68600 Red Arrow Highway in Hartford between exits 41 and 46 off Interstate 94, approximately 45 miles northeast of Four Winds New Buffalo.
The casino features 500 slot machines, nine table games, and a second location of the Timbers Fast Food and Deli.
