    Two poker players got lucky at an iconic Las Vegas casino over the weekend.

    A man from Sheridan, Montana, hit a $600,022 jackpot Saturday, Oct. 12, at Caesars Palace, the hotel said in a news release.

    He was at a High Card Flush poker table for less than an hour when he won with a six-card straight flush.

    A straight flush happens when cards are in sequential order and all in the same suit. His winning cards were a 9, 10, jack, queen, king and ace.

    The lucky poker player traveled to Vegas for a football game but left over a half-million dollars richer.

    The second poker player was on vacation at the gambling destination from Knoxville, Tennessee, the hotel said.

    She sat at a Crazy 4 Poker table at the same casino on Oct. 13 and won the $216,682 jackpot.

    The woman scored big with a royal flush, the rarest hand in the game , according to Upswing Poker.

    Her winning cards were a 10, jack, queen, king and ace.

    The lucky gambler told the casino she plans to spend her money on a home and to travel with her children.

    Caesars Palace is famous for its Roman architecture. The hotel and casino is on the Strip.
