One Las Vegas gambler defied the odds on Thanksgiving Day when they won $121,100 from a $1 bet. They hit ten out of ten numbers on Game King Single Card Keno to win the progressive jackpot at Boulder Station:

The unnamed local’s odds of doing so were approximately 1 in 8,911,711; they were eight times more likely to be struck by lightning. Boulder Station is a popular haunt for locals and more value-minded visitors to Nevada.

Some people on social media joked that the gambler should have gotten a bigger payout, given the astronomical odds of winning the ten-spot Keno progressive jackpot.
