Poker and slot machines don't usually share the same sentence — but Chino Rheem, Sam Soverel, and Rick "Scum" Salomon just changed that. The three players, all well-known in high-stakes circles, teamed up for a slot session that produced a staggering $2.5 million in returns over the span of two days.
Rheem and Soverel — both decorated tournament and cash game players — brought Salomon into the mix, and the trio didn't leave empty-handed. The $2.5M figure places this run firmly among the most notable casino floor stories of the year, even by Vegas standards.
Details on the specific venue or machines involved remain sparse, but the outcome speaks for itself. When players of this caliber shift their focus from felt to reels, the numbers can apparently follow.
