It figures that a billionaire would win big in Las Vegas.
GOV. JB Pritzker plans to donate his blackjack winnings to charity
(NAM Y. HUH Associated Press)
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker reported a gambling windfall of $1.4 million on his federal tax return this week.
The two-term Democrat, often mentioned as a 2028 presidential candidate, told reporters in Chicago on Thursday that he drew charmed hands in blackjack during a vacation with first lady MK Pritzker and friends in Sin City.
"I was incredibly lucky," he said. "You have to be to end up ahead, frankly, going to a casino anywhere."
