Virginia Man Wins $250,000 Playing Slots At Borgata Casino In Atlantic City

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. (CBS) -- A Virginia man walked away with $250,000 playing slots on Sunday night at the Borgata Hotel Casino & Spa in Atlantic City.

Aubrey G. Hart, Jr., a 49 year-old attorney and resident of Harrisonburg, Virginia, came to Borgata over the weekend to try his luck at the slot machines and, after less than 30 minutes, walked away a quarter of a million dollars richer.

"Borgata is the best casino in Atlantic City!" Aubrey said after realizing he had hit it big.

Sunday's win comes on the heels of a Maryland man winning over $3.8 million on a $5 "Wheel of Fortune" progressive slot machine, one of the largest jackpots in the casino's nine-year history.

Aubrey plans to use part of his winnings to pay off his house and to purchase a new car for his son.
