The recent winner Wanda S answered several questions concerning this big win. Here's the full interview:
Please share with us the story of how it happened: how did you react and who did you share the news with?
I began playing on the Internet about 7 months ago, off and on. The day I won, I just had a feeling like I had to play. I never thought that I would hit the jackpot, so when I had $7 left I hit the button and it happened! I won the jackpot! I was speechless, there was nobody here, so I called my brother and mom and my husband. They were so happy for me and told me how lucky I was. When my 7-year-old granddaughter heard that I won she thought I had become a millionaire!!! I printed out the screen with the win on it, and I am putting it in a scrapbook hoping to get some more to add to that.
I have been going to live casinos now and then, but since I found the online casinos, I really like the convenience of just being at home. You can play when you have the time, you don't have to dress up and drive far away just to have some fun. I won the very first time I played on the Internet, so I believe it could happen to anyone.
Do you have any plans for the winnings?
It is going to be a great help. We are planning on using some of it in investments because my husband is planning on retiring in a few years. We don't travel much so I don't think we are going anywhere with it. I shared some with my daughter, and with my younger son who is rebuilding a car so I helped him out a little. And then some of the money will go for repairs on the house, which is really a great help. I really believe in sharing, I always believe that if you give then you get. I give to my family and my church.
Is there anything special that you do for good luck?
Not really, I always go in telling myself that I am going to win, I am very optimistic, I go in thinking that I am going to win and then it becomes fun. I just think that if you think positive and have a positive attitude it seems to help. Sometimes if I am not in a positive place I just don't play, I don't think it would help me win.
What's your star sign?
Pisces. I just had my 56 birthday! This is the third year in a row that I won a jackpot around my birthday. Two years ago I won $1,800 and a year ago it was $1,300 that was actually exactly on my birthday. I ended up giving my daughter some of the money and then she won. It was just a really lucky day. And then this year it was $5,800. Who knows what will happen next year…
Do you have any advice for other players?
Yes! Don't spend more than you can afford to lose! I always feel that if you are in there and not winning then stop, go away and come back when you feel that the win is on your side. And remember that it is just a gam; it is for fun, so enjoy it! Because if you have to worry about it, then it is not fun anymore.
