ELK GROVE, CA (MPG) - Sky River Casino is celebrating a recent $142,327.60 jackpot win, awarded to German Rangel of Sacramento, after he hit the popular table game, Bonus Spin Xtreme® (BSX) Triple Diamond Progressive, while playing at the casino.

Rangel, a Sky River Rewards member since September 2022 and current Gold Tier member, placed a $5 Bonus Spin Xtreme progressive side bet when the jackpot was triggered near the end of his visit.

“I was trying to process the fact that I hit that amount of money on a five-dollar bet,” Rangel said. “(My) first thought was, ‘What am I going to buy?’ It felt unreal.”

The jackpot is bringing Rangel closer to a lifelong dream; purchasing a classic car he's admired since childhood.

When asked what advice he’d give other players, Rangel kept it simple, “Don't give up. Just keep playing, ‘cause your win is coming!”

“For a Sacramento resident to be just minutes away from Sky River and experience a life changing win that close to home is incredible,” said President and General Manager of Sky River Casino Michael J. Facenda. “I hope German gets the car of his dreams and brings it to the casino, where our valet will welcome his arrival and make sure his new ride is well cared for.”

Sky River Casino congratulates Rangel on his exciting win and remains committed to delivering unforgettable gaming experiences in a safe, fun and responsible environment.
