NIAGARA FALLS -- She saw the Michael Jackson slot machine and knew she wanted to Beat It.

Kathryn Stokes won $1.8 million at Fallsview Casino in Niagara Falls playing a Jackson-themed slot machine Tuesday afternoon.

"It's unbelievable," said the 55-year-old. "This is only my second visit to Fallsview Casino. I chose this machine because I love Michael Jackson's music and I was lucky to win a few hundred dollars the first time I played. This time I put in only $60."

Stokes played the casino's Michael Jackson The King of Pop machine for about an hour before earning herself a jackpot of $1,862,447.25.

Stokes, who works with the Peel Regional Police in Brampton, a Toronto suburb, said she's not a gambler but decided to tag along with her friend and a legion in Woodbridge which was making a trip to the casino.

"Huge," she said when asked if she's a Jackson fan. "That's what drew me to it."

Stokes said she's still trying to process the big win and is not entirely sure what she wants to do with the money.

"I have no idea at the moment. I'm looking at a brand new car."

The largest payout to date at Niagara Casinos was on Feb. 14, 2002, when Doris Wendt of North Tonawanda won $5.6 million.

Oh waw, and a Michael Jackson fan too. This is such good news, and her win is good advertisement for the machines!!! Since she is not really a gambler, it must be the music that kept her playing for an hour!!! I was hoping to win on his machine, when I played in Vegas, but no such luck. Michael's fans are all over the place.
 
My friends are on their honeymoon there right now! I know when they find out they will think of me, I wore my MJOne t-shirt to the wedding rehearsal last week! Damn, if only they were playing, it could have been them! I am happy for her though, I am glad a fan won.

I've just played the same machine at the Mirage in Vegas. It was the quickest way to lose $20 but I'm going back there tonight for sure now!!!

But I'm so glad a fan won! :clapping: Congratulations!
 
It's been 3 days and I haven't pushed a single jackpot! My wife and in-laws have all played and won so I've been fortunate to see the Beat it, Billie Jean, DSTYGE and Smooth Criminal games.

The machine is awesome and as sad as it sounds, I sort of enjoy watching other people play and get pumped by the music and visuals that come from the machine.

I'm yet to see Bad and I have 24 hours left so I'm remaining hopeful!
 
I am happy for her. I won $200.00 2 years ago one of these day i am going to hit the big one and when i do i am going to do Jam all the way to the bank.

I need to find her and get her secret awesome:punk:

I lost a LOT of money on this machine when I was in Vegas! But it was great fun. Waiting for those bonuses to come up is the most exciting thing!

The fun part of going to a Vegas casino you haven't been to is finding the MJ slot machine :D
 
I play for hours whenever I'm in Vegas. I won about $600 once but mostly lose happily.
 
Congratulations to this lady :)

Awesome she won it on a mj machine
 
I hate this machine! It's sooo hard. I got frustrated and went back to the Alien themed machine where I was winning :D
But of course, I liked the random song samples the machine would blast.
 
First, I'm really glad that lucky woman won so much money, and the fact it was from an MJ slot Machine makes that all the more good news! :)

Seriously, it would be great if there was a home release of these slot machines for some of the game consoles, especially with the mixes of MJ's songs featured in the game.
 
Wow! Lucky lady.
I played it in Vegas and it is addicting for sure. From the music to the visuals of MJ dancing on the screen, it's a lot of fun. I won about 300.00 all together. Took me awhile though.

I lost 15€ on a MJ machine at the Cafe de Paris in Monaco. Really annoying, but good for her.
