In a game similar to “Blackjack,” a Connecticut casino player won a jackpot prize Wednesday.

The player hit a Double Diamond Jackpot playing “Spanish 21” in Casino of the Earth at Mohegan Sun. The jackpot was worth $70,630.75.

Last week, one of the largest jackpots ever won at Mohegan Sun was hit while playing on a “Spanish 21″ table in Casino of the Earth. The player made an optional $5 Bonus Spin Xtreme side bet and it ended in Triple Diamonds. The jackpot was worth $2,018,742.30.

“Not only is this the biggest jackpot win at Mohegan Sun in 2025, but it also ranks among the top five largest table game payouts ever at Mohegan Sun,” a press release from the casino stated.

The casino has sixteen Spanish 21 tables. Overall, there are about 4,000 slot machines and more than 300 table games at Mohegan Sun.

Players must be 21 years or older.

The Connecticut Sun have had a rather up-and-down week as a franchise.

On Tuesday they sold out TD Garden for the second time as they hosted Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever. Although they lost the contest, the Sun drew over 19,000 fans to the arena and local bars were jam-packed with watch parties.

That night though, also highlighted the fact that the Sun do not play in front of nearly 20,000 fans every home game. Some players like rookie Saniya Rivers said they wouldn’t mind seeing the team fully relocate to Boston.

“If it was up to me, we might relocate here,” Rivers said on Tuesday. “I love Connecticut, it’s fine, but I think the marketing here itself is just going to be better for a women’s basketball program and I think we can make a lot of noise here starting tonight, so I’m just excited to be a part of it.”

The contrast between the team’s current facilities and potential digs in Boston were only amplified later this week when The Athletic released its anonymous WNBA player poll.

One of the questions asked to veterans around the league was “what is the league’s worst-run organization?”

Of the 27 players who answered the question, eight, or 29.6 percent, selected the Sun, the second highest behind the Chicago Sky at 40.7 percent.

The complaints for both teams centered around the infrastructure and practice facilities. Also, according to one player referring to Connecticut, “the travel and location (make it unappealing).”

The story does note that the Sky are working on building a new $38 million performance center, but so far nothing like that has been announced for the Sun.

Connecticut’s practice facilities have bothered players in the past, with former Sun star Alyssa Thomas sharing a particularly frustrating story involving a practice…

LOS ANGELES: An explosion at a Los Angeles law enforcement training facility early Friday that killed three deputies was being investigated as a possible training accident, officials said.

Los Angeles County Sheriff Robert Luna said the deputies were members of the arson and explosives unit, a team that goes through in-depth training and responds to more than 1,000 calls a year.

“They have years of training,” he said. “They are fantastic experts and, unfortunately, I lost three of them today.”

The explosion was reported about 7:30 a.m. at the Biscailuz Training Facility, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department spokesperson Nicole Nishida said. It was not immediately known what caused the explosion or what the deputies were doing at the time.

Luna said it took more than four hours to render the scene safe and the deaths are being investigated by the department’s homicide detectives, who are being assisted by the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. No one else was injured in the explosion, he said.

An early line of investigation was looking at a possible training accident, according to a law enforcement official briefed on the matter who was not authorized to discuss it and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

In a post on X, Attorney General Pam Bondi said the explosion “appears to be a horrific incident” and federal agents are at the scene to learn more.

“Please pray for the families of the sheriff’s deputies killed,” Bondi wrote.

Altogether, the three deputies had served in the department for 74 years, Luna said. He said the deaths marked the department’s worst loss of life in a single incident since 1857 and noted that he couldn’t release the deputies’ names because he had yet to speak to one of the families.

“I have met with two…
