Snoqualmie Casino Pays Out Million Dollar Jackpot
SEATTLE – February 27, 2010 – Super 6X Saturday got a little more “Super” for one lucky winner as Snoqualmie Casino paid out one of Washington State’s largest jackpots Saturday night. Mary P. of Seattle won over one million dollars playing Rocket Gaming’s Kingdom Cash machine.
While participating in the widely popular 6X Saturday promotion, Mary had invested a couple hundred dollars in the machine over the course of an hour before hitting the jackpot which totaled $1,035,009.44. While being one of the largest jackpots ever paid in Washington State, it isn’t a surprise that a large jackpot was won at Snoqualmie Casino. Since November 6, 2008, Snoqualmie Casino has paid out over TWO BILLION DOLLARS.
“We believe in giving value to the customer,” said Michael Barozzi, chief executive officer of Snoqualmie Entertainment Authority, which operates Snoqualmie Casino. “We couldn’t be happier for Mary and her family. To have an opportunity to pay out a life changing jackpot is truly an honor.”
The next 6X Saturday promotion is Saturday, March 6, 6 p.m. – midnight. All Crescent Club card members will receive 6X points while they play slots, table games, and poker. Points can be used for cash, retail, or dining.

About the Snoqualmie Indian Tribe
With approximately 600 members, the Snoqualmie Tribe and its people have lived in the Puget Sound region since time immemorial. In 1855 Snoqualmie signed the Point Elliott Treaty. This treaty created a government-to-government relationship between the United States and the Snoqualmie Tribe. The Tribe lost federal recognition in 1953 when federal termination policies resulted in the termination of all tribes not having reservations. In 1999, after 46 years of petitioning, the Bureau of Indian Affairs notified the Tribe that they had re-acknowledged the Snoqualmie Tribe and granted the Snoqualmie official tribal status.
