$295K Winner Natosha Heard Smiles for the Camera<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

TEMECULA<\/b>, Calif. \u2013 (March 4, 2014) \u2013 Single mother of a four-year-old girl, Natosha Heard, had been having some bad luck the last few months. The transmission on her unreliable car had died and she was driving a rental car. Payments for the rental car and other bills had begun to pile up. On Sunday, March 2, she managed to get a day off from tending to patients and health care providers as a health care insurance representative. She opted to spend some time playing a $0.01 \u201cLet\u2019s Make a Deal\u201d slot machine at Pechanga Resort & Casino. It was getting late in the afternoon and before she was about to drive home to Anaheim, she took the slot machine reels for one more spin. In less than one second, lights began flashing, bells began ringing, and Natosha began screaming. She hit the winning combination to score the progressive jackpot worth $295,423.30.<\/p>\n

Overcome with emotion laced with joyous screams, people gathered around her, and wished her congratulations. \u201cIt is still a dream,\u201d she said when asked how she felt about her win. \u201cI just screamed,\u201d as many nearby guests could also verify. \u201cI\u2019ve never won anything and this is just such a blessing. I will definitely use some of the money to make my daughter\u2019s life a little more comfortable, then invest it.\u201d In addition to the win itself, Natosha was thrilled to take photos with the big check next to the slot machine and pulled out every pose she could think of \u2013 the big smile, one leg raised, looking excitedly at the slot machine and more. \u201cWhen I told my friends and family about it, they said one of two things. \u2018You\u2019re lying\u2019 or \u2018You totally deserve this.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
