$5 AND A DREAM, LOCAL HITS $10,001 JACKPOT AT

Dee Abney of Johnsonville, NY hit a $10,001 jackpot on Bally’s Hot Shots penny progressive game recently at Saratoga Gaming and Raceway.

After playing for a short time the day before, Dee woke up on Monday, February 15 and was informed by her husband that she had been talking in her sleep throughout the night. “What was she talking about?” you might ask. Hitting a jackpot, of course. In her dream that Sunday night, Dee had spoken of playing “Just 5 more dollars!” Then, shortly after, she recalls seeing a jackpot amount of $5,200 come up on the screen of a Hot Shot Progressive game.

Not thinking much of it, Dee and her husband returned to Saratoga Gaming and Raceway the next day. While there Dee decided to try to find the game she had seen in her dream the night prior. Walking amongst the ringing bells and flashing lights, she finally found the game in the penny slot section. She sat down to play with just $20. She played through $15 of the original $20, which left her with 100 credits and her last $5. The very next spin that she took is what granted her a $10,001 jackpot.

“I was stunned,” described Dee. “My husband told me to stay at the machine while he took off to look for a floor attendant. We were both very excited!”

This $10,001 jackpot is sure to make for some sweet dreams for Dee and her husband.
