ATLANTIC CITY, New Jersey - Sammy Zabib walked in to buy a pair of designer jeans for his girlfriend and walked out with $800.000.
Zabib was getting an earful from his girlfriend for forgetting to buy her a pair of designer jeans she spotted in a casino boutique last weekend.
They are not arguing now.
On a return trip to pick up the jeans and end the grief Friday morning, the New York limousine fleet manager won nearly $800,000 playing a slot machine in Atlantic City.
With some time to kill until the store opened, he sat down at a Brazil Slingo slot machine and started playing, betting $4 a spin for about an hour.
Then the machine stopped working, and Zabib called security who came over and told him he had won the jackpot.
He called his girlfriend, whom he identified only as Anna, and she started screaming.
"She wasn't mad anymore," he said with a laugh. "She's waiting for me at home now."
After receiving his payout from the casino, Zabib bought a pair of Dojo 7-brand jeans that Anna had wanted so badly.
Zabib does not know what else he will do with his newfound riches.
"Maybe buy her some more jeans," Zabib said.
