A table games player at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek won $977,511 on Friday, May 29, after placing a $5 side bet and hitting a Royal Flush on Ultimate Texas Hold’em.
Good to Know
The jackpot hit on Ultimate Texas Hold’em, but the progressive pool covers several table games at Seminole Casino Coconut Creek. Players can chase the same linked jackpot through Ultimate Texas Hold’em, Three-Card Poker, Mississippi Stud, DJ Wild Stud Poker, and Let it Ride.
The qualifying hand was a Royal Flush. That keeps the top prize rare, but it also explains why a small side bet can turn into a life-changing casino payout. Progressive table game jackpots grow through optional side bets, usually across several tables or several games, until one player hits the required hand.
That structure gives players more than one way into the same pool. However, the side bet does the important work. Without the $5 progressive wager, the Mega jackpot would not apply.
Seminole Casino Coconut Creek has built a strong table games offering around these products. The official casino page lists more than 80 live table games, including blackjack, craps, roulette, baccarat, and Ultimate Texas Hold’em. The property also promotes a smoke-free casino area with more than 300 slots and eight live table games.
The win also gives Seminole Casino Coconut Creek another large payout to add to its recent jackpot history. A local player won $1,245,925.78 on June 22, 2025, after placing a $125 bet on a Dragon Link slot.
Another guest also landed a Dragon Link Mega jackpot worth $1,061,635.96 after a $25 spin on Tuesday, January 27. After that win, the Dragon Link progressive jackpot reset to its $1m starting level, giving the next player pool a fresh top prize to chase.
For players new to Ultimate Texas Hold’em, the game uses two hole cards and five community cards, with the goal of making a stronger five-card poker hand than the dealer. The game follows standard poker rankings, so a Royal Flush sits at the top.
The casino also has other live table game prizes in play. The Live Blackjack Progressive now sits above $670,000, with players able to place another $5 side bet for a shot at one of five progressive jackpots.
There is also a loyalty angle. Table games players can earn double Unity Points every Tuesday. Smoke-free table games open daily from 10 a.m., which gives players a cleaner-air option without leaving the live dealer area.
