A Tracy man’s habit of making two last bets each time he leaves Jackson Rancheria Casino paid off big time when he hit a $250,000 jackpot on March 4. “I have this tradition,” says Anthony Kronenberger of Tracy. “When I’m leaving, I stop in the High Limit Room and put 100 dollars in the 100 dollar machine and 100 dollars in the 50 dollar machine. This time I hit it, on that one pull. I couldn’t believe it.” Kronenberger put his usual 100 dollars in the 50 dollar 5by Pay – 10by Pay Quick Hit Progressive machine and won a jackpot of a lifetime. “At first I thought I won 12,000 dollars,” says Kronenberger. “I thought it was 25,000 dollars, and then I added it up on the calculator on my cell phone and I couldn’t believe it was 250,000 dollars!” The 30-year-old auto body shop owner has been coming to Jackson Rancheria for about five years. Kronenberger hasn’t figured out yet what he’s going to do with his windfall. “I don’t know what I’m going to do with it. I’m still in shock. For now I’ve just put it in the bank until my head gets clear and then I’ll figure it out.” The Jackson Rancheria Casino & Hotel is located in Jackson off New York Ranch Road.
