'I play on 888.com few times a week, usually roulette, poker or black jack and have always done fairly well. However this fantastic win by far surpasses my expectations. But when it comes to playing the slots at 888.com, I don't think I'll ever stop. The truth is I never thought I could win something as big as this but trust me, it is real, says Etta Shaw.
