Interview: Solitaire171 Wins Cash For Bills In Quick-Draw Poker

Topic: Members
Solitaire171Gamesviller Solitaire171 of Lakeland, FL, recently won $100 playing Quick-Draw Poker.

What was her moment of victory like? What does she do for a living? Find out below...

Gamesville: Congratulations! What was it like when you realized you won?
I was amazed and elated when I won! There were lots of other members there to congratulate me as well as a close personal friend on the phone at the time. Everyone was really great about it and I felt truly blessed to have drawn the jackpot card!

What will you spend your winnings on?
I have some bills to pay with my winnings. With the economy today it's a big help!

What do you do for a living?
I am a server at a local restaurant. I like my job, but don't like having to wash the dishes. I certainly do like serving the customers and is absolutely the preferred part of my job!

What three songs could you listen to for the rest of your life?
I can't name just three songs; I love music in general so it's hard to say. But here are my top two for sure:

  • Sister Golden Hair Surprise - America
  • You've Got a Friend - James Taylor

What do you treasure most in the world?
I treasure my family the most, they are everything to me!

What does your Gamesville member name mean?
My member name comes from the fact that I used to play solitaire a LOT, and when I was born.

What game would you like to see the Gamesville team create next?

I love Gamesville just the way it is, I can't think of anything off the top of my head to improve it! Keep up the good work!

Thanks, Solitaire171 - and congratulations again on your BIG win!

Well, that is nice to hear...but......I have added other jackpot winners to my friends list in order to see when they are online.  Every time I have gone to a room they show as being in (you included!) and attempted to chat.   NADA, NOTHING, ZILCH ...no responses..

And so, that leads me to believe, as most that play here do...JACKPOTS ARE NOT PAID OUT TO US POOR SHMUCKS WHO PLAY HERE.  They are a way for the site to get people to join and spend money.  Sure, you may win 3$..lol...as I did......but you will get it in a year unless you win the minimum required for a payout.  It's just enough to get your hopes up and make you want to play the cash games...The only cash being won is by Gamesville.  But hey, we know that...so just play for fun....cause that is ALL that can be won here.

Hi Just to let you know, the jackpots are real, I recently won in magic 21. Got the cheque and its been cashed so treated myself to a nice new computer.

And I am real, you can normally find me in tournament room 1 - magic21 or tournament room 1 - hotstreak solitaire.

Ask anyone in the room if scottie is real they will tell you I definately am.
