More on slot jackpot at Seminole Coconut Creek

Paulette Miles hit a $1.1 million slots jackpot last weekend at Seminole Coconut Creek casino.

Where does it rank among jackpots?

International Game Technologies keeps a list of slots records. A rep there says it's probably a record for Florida -- we've only had big slots for such a short time -- and Seminoles and others say it, so I'm comfortable calling it a record.

For the stats freaks, here are some other slot records:

Meanwhile, I give Paulette Miles credit for consenting to media interviews. Hey, if I win that much money, I'm ducking out. FYI, she headed to a financial adviser already, and it looks like she has a plan. But I think she had clearly had it with the attention.

So, if you hit it big, do you duck us media or do you grab the spotlight?
