The player, who has not been identified, won twice at Caesars Palace within five hours, KLAS-TV reported.

The gambler won $165,000 at about 5 p.m. PST, casino officials told the television station.

The same guest won an additional $545,000 on another slot machine at about 9:20 p.m. PST, according to the Casino City Times.

“What a night. According to Caesars Palace, the slot player raked in $710,000,” KLAS reported.

It was unclear how much money the guest spent to win the second jackpot. But it is a good bet that he still was able to finish in the black.
