Comfy casino chair floors Kelowna man with nearly $1.5M win

‘Holy cow, that’s not possible!’

A Kelowna man couldn’t believe his luck after he realized he won $1.485 million on a Wheel of Fortune Lucky Coins slot machine at Chances Casino.

“Holy cow, that’s not possible!” Greg Moroso said of his jackpot win on March 22. He was making $3 wagers on a Powerbucks progressive slot machine.

“Quite frankly, I just wanted to sit down in a nice, comfortable chair for a little bit, so the win was a big plus,” Moroso added.
