Treasure Nile is a Microgaming 5 reel 9 payline progressive slot game with 35 different winning combinations and progressive jackpot starting at $40,000. The recent winner Shelby B answered several questions concerning this big win. Here's the full interview:

What are your plans for your winnings?
We have bought land and planned on building a new house in the next 2 years. This money will give us a good head start!!

What is your dream holiday destination?
Well, I already had a trip planned to go to Las Vegas on April 5th, so I hope the luck is with me on that vacation. Also my kids and I are planning to go to Idaho in June to visit family. This money will certainly help to pay for 5 plane tickets.

Do you have any special hobbies?
Bowling, dancing and gambling!

Is there anything else you would like to share with your fellow progressives fans?
I am 31 years old. I have 3 children ages: 10, 6, and 3. My husband and I are so thrilled that I won the jackpot because we have had a rough past 3 years. He had a shoulder injury which resulted in 3 surgeries and quite a lot of lost wages. I guess this money helps to make up for that. We are so happy that we will be able to pay for some of the expences of building a house without having to take such a big construction loan.
