RENO, Nev. (AP) - A lucky gambler was getting down to the last few dollars before striking it big at the Atlantis Casino Resort in Reno.

Casino officials say the winner is a regular guest at the casino and won $3.8 million Sunday playing a Wheel of Fortune machine.

The unidentified winner plans to use the money to pay off debt and then to travel.



The guest had put $50 into the machine and had $13.50 remaining with which to play when the jackpot hit.
