Congratulations on your success.
And thank you for doing the right thing with somebody else's ticket. It was also the smart thing to do. At South Point they have excellent cameras and had you taken the ticket, they could have after-the-fact used the cameras to follow you to your car in order to ID you. I've had a tour of their security room and watched them do this. (We watched a random customer from the day before and didn't take not of their license number --- but it illustrated what could have been done had that person been suspected of something.)
Don't make too big a deal of connecting the dots between being a Good Samaritan and hitting a jackpot. There will be other times where you are nice to somebody and then you lose your butt --- and there will be times where you are a jerk and then hit a royal flush.
Humans are good at believing things are linked just because one came before the other. Usually things aren't linked. Even if you believe in Karma --- it's impossible to accurately ascribe a particular jackpot to a particular good deed. You can do seventeen good deeds (however you define a "good deed") in a day and "only" hit 4 jackpots. Does that mean that Karma owes you 13 more?
