The Biggest Winners From Treasure Island’s Record Breaking March

If you feel like everyone but you is hitting it big lately, you’re not imagining it. 2026 has officially turned into the "Year of the Jackpot" here in Minnesota.

In February I wrote stories about the man who won $516,000 at at Mystic Lake and about the wild Valentine’s Day "Bad Beat" where 8 players split over $200,000 after being dealt a losing hand. Now, Treasure Island has announced their March winners and the casino says it was their biggest March ever.

Treasure Island Resort and Casino, located at 5734 Sturgeon Lake Rd.in Welch, has more than 1,700 slot, video poker and video keno machines, 44 table games, a poker room and a 500-seat high-stakes bingo hall.
