Mystery bettor wins 1.5 million at Horseshoe Las Vegas
A mysterious gambler won more than 1.5 million dollars after placing a single 777000 dollar bet at a downtown Las Vegas craps table. He exited with two brown satchels filled with cash and drove away calmly. The win marked the biggest bet the Horseshoe Club had seen, with security escorting him to his car as he left. He had called weeks earlier to arrange the bet, originally aiming for a million. The casino normally handles smaller stakes but markets a high limit for elite players.
