New Jersey ? All week, Sammy Zabib was getting an earful from his girlfriend for forgetting to buy her a pair of designer jeans she spotted in a casino boutique last weekend.

“She was mad,” said Zabib, a 42-year-old limousine fleet manager in New York. “We had an argument. More than one.”

They’re not arguing now.

On a return trip to pick up the jeans and end the grief Friday morning, Zabib won nearly $800,000 playing a slot machine.

With some time to kill, he sat down at a Brazil Slingo slot machine and started playing, betting $4 a spin for about an hour.

“I was just trying to kill time until the store opened so I could get her those jeans,” he said. “Then the machine stopped working. I didn’t know why, so I called security. They came over, took a look at it, and said, ‘You won the jackpot!”‘

After receiving his payout from the casino, Zabib completed his mission, buying the pair of “7 For All Mankind” jeans – Dojo style – that Anna had wanted so badly.
