A little joker went a long way Sunday night at a Las Vegas casino.

A player at Sunset Station used the joker to complete a straight flush on a pai gow poker table, winning $182,000 in the process.

The winning hand hit around 7:30 p.m., according to the Twitter account of Station Casinos.

It was the second six-figure jackpot hit Sunday on a Las Vegas table game. A blackjack player won $153, 590 at Bally’s on a Blazing 7’s Blackjack Mega Progressive jackpot.
