Three lucky players have now won more than $1.4 million playing Cadillac Jack’s Wide Area Progressive Cadillac Cash at Wind Creek

AL and Duluth, GA – February 16, 2010 - A very lucky Pensacola resident won $407,434.76 on February 12, 2010 while playing Cadillac Jack’s wide area progressive Cadillac Cash™ during her visit to Wind Creek Casino & Hotel in Atmore, AL.  This is the third time that the Cadillac Cash jackpot has hit at Wind Creek since the casino’s grand opening in January 2009 and the fifth Cadillac Cash award to players at casinos operated by the Poarch Band of Creek Indians.   

The winner, Christine, had initially won $69 after playing for five minutes. She was so busy talking to her mother about her $69 win that she didn’t notice she had hit the progressive jackpot of $407,434.76 on Cadillac Cash The Game™, a popular title on the Cadillac Cash wide area progressive. Christine’s initial reaction was, “I can’t believe it – I’ve just won! I’m in shock. I’m going to start crying!” Her voice trembled with emotion as she explained, “I have been out of work since December and my house is in foreclosure. This is going to save my house.”

“We are extremely excited for Christine,” said Arthur Mothershed, Property Manager for Wind Creek Casino & Hotel. “This is yet another example of bigger and better payouts at Wind Creek. We enjoy creating an exciting world of possibility for our guests, and congratulate Christine on her life-changing jackpot.”

“It’s quite gratifying to help tribal operators build for their future with our multi-site progressive, Cadillac Cash,” noted Mauro Franic, Vice President of Product Management and Marketing for Cadillac Jack. “This progressive is linked to Native American casinos throughout the country and has already paid out more than $3.1 million to lucky winners nationwide. The opportunity to help change an individual’s life, and also help further the success of our customers is very rewarding.”
