Broadview,IL. Resident joins the Illinois Lottery’s ‘Millionaire’s Club

02/07/08 Broadview Resident joins the Illinois Lottery’s ‘Millionaire’s Club!’


CHICAGO, IL January 31, 2008 Winning big money from the Illinois Lottery is nothing new to

Jackie White of Broadview, Illinois. The 45-year-old construction worker took home a whopping
$12,500 on a Pick 3 purchase just a few years ago.



But a recent purchase of the Illinois Lottery’s $250 Million Millionaire’s Club super ticket left him
stunned. White purchased the ticket from a retailer inside of the Forest Park CTA train station, and to
his amazement, scratched the instant ticket to find out he had just won a cool $1 million.
I just couldn’t believe it. I almost had a heart attack, said White, who regularly purchases a variety
of instant tickets. I know how to play this game, but when I saw that I had won the million dollars, I
just didn’t think it was for real. So I took the ticket back to the store and had it scanned. That’s when
the retailer told me that the ticket was indeed for real.


White, who with his wife Zelma has three children, says he will invest the money immediately but has
no plans to quit his job. He also intends to continue playing the Lottery daily.
His advice for winning: Just keep playing. I used to think that winning something that big wasn’t
going to happen for me, but it really can happen. One thing’s for sure, if you don’t play, you’ll never
win!

Louisiana Lottery Reports More Than $107 Million in Winnings

02/08/08 Louisiana Lottery Reports More Than $107 Million in Winnings


During January Louisiana Lottery more Than $7.3 Million Claimed from Scratch-Off Tickets During January
The Louisiana Lottery Corporation reported more than $107 million in winning tickets for its draw-style games during January, highlighted by one Powerball jackpot-winning ticket worth $97,000,000, two Lotto jackpot-winning tickets worth $375,000 each and four Easy 5 jackpot-winning tickets worth amounts ranging from $25,000 to $100,521. Also during the same month, scratch-off players claimed more than $7.3 million in cash prizes.
January's winning draw-style tickets totaled $107,394,099, which also included two Powerball prizes of $200,000 each, 10 Powerball prizes of $10,000 each, 152 "match-5" Lotto prizes averaging $1,781 and Pick 3 prizes totaled $2,083,610.


For the first time since the Louisiana Lottery launched Pick 4 in March 1999, more than $1.6 million was won when the numbers 5-5-5-5 were randomly selected for the Jan. 27 drawing. As a result, Pick 4 prizes totaled $3,352,800 for the month of January.
Easy 5 prizes totaled $422,564 with an additional $334,823 won in ezmatch prizes. For an additional $1, players can add ezmatch to their Easy 5 ticket for the chance to win up to $250 instantly. Lottery draw-style game players have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim their winnings.
"Last month, more than 25,000 Power Play purchasers won a bonus total of $1,101,765 in addition to their regular Powerball prize. This included one player who multiplied her prize by five to win $1 million," Lottery President Rose Hudson said. For an additional $1, the Power Play option offers Powerball ticket purchasers the chance to multiply any nonjackpot-related prize up to five times depending upon the Power Play multiplier number randomly selected during the drawing.
In addition to the $7,321,342 in scratch-off cash prizes paid during January, players also claimed $1,293,287 worth of free tickets. Scratch-off players have 90 days from the official game closure date to claim a winning ticket.
While actual game performance and the amount of prizes claimed will vary from month to month, the Lottery allocates at least 50 percent of sales to fund prizes, with 35 percent of sales transferred to the state treasury for the Minimum Foundation Program that funds public education in Louisiana. Retailers are paid at least 5 percent in commission and the Lottery retains less than 10 percent of sales to operate.
"We encourage players to sign the back of their tickets immediately after purchasing and to check them promptly after the drawing. Even if a ticket doesn't win the jackpot, it might possibly have won a smaller prize," Hudson added.

Bozeman, Montana: Lotto winner Full Day at the Montana Lottery

02/09/08 A Full Day at the Montana Lottery


So far today, two lucky Montana Lottery winners have claimed prizes from recent Lotto drawings.
This morning, Terry Jensen of Belgrade arrived with his winning Montana Cash lotto ticket from the January 30 drawing. Jensen bought
his ticket at Van’s County Market in Bozeman, Montana. His prize was $50,000.


Jensen is a regular player, playing a set of his own numbers in Powerball, and then playing Quick Picks in Montana Cash.
He is a native of the Gallatin Valley, and is an electrician for Current Electric.
His plans include paying bills, maybe taking a vacation, and buying a new house for some property he has in Belgrade.
Then, Sonia Silvan of Big Sandy brought her winning Powerball with Power Play ticket to the Lottery. Sonia bought her ticket, also a Quick Pick,
at Price Rite in Fort Benton, Montana. Her Montana lotto Powerball ticket matched
four white balls plus the Powerball on the January 26 drawing.
She wisely added Power Play to her ticket, which multiplied her $10,000 times 2, for $20,000.
Sonia works for the Chouteau County and Big Sandy Conservation Districts. She heard Monday morning that a ticket bought in Fort Benton,MT., was worth $20,000,
so she took her tickets to a nearby store. After she looked at the winning numbers and her Powerball ticket, she knew she had the one. She went back to work,
called her husband, Wayne, daughters, Amy and Jenny, and sister, Penny Wilson.
No one answered, so she retried Penny. Penny, who lives in Norris, was sleeping in, and answered the phone, What do you want?!
Sonia whispered, I won the Lottery. Penny said that woke her up, so she asked her how much. Sonia was still whispering: $20,000. So Penny asked her why she
was whispering and Sonia explained that she was at work and wanted her family to know first.
Daughter Amy also asked her Mom why she was whispering when they finally talked later on Monday.
Sonia said she’s not sure what she’s doing with her winnings, but sister Penny said she was buying lunch today.

Putnam County, NY Largest Streak Continues With $12 million lotto win

Putnam County's Largest Streak Continues With $12 million Lotto Win
(Mahopac Lotto Subscriber Claims County’s 5th Millionaire Check in Six Months)

Schenectady, NY - No matter how you pronounce it, “May-O-pac” or “Mah-HO-pac,” there’s one thing that everyone can agree on: Mahopac, NY, population 8,478, is a lucky place to live, especially if you play the Lottery.

The New York Lottery today presented a $12,000,000 prize check to 68-year-old Judith Kelly, a long-time “Mah-HO-pac” resident and a long-time Lotto subscriber. Kelly said she purchased her play-from-home Lotto subscription because she and her husband figured “someone had to win and the money went to support education.”

A Lotto subscriber since 1996, Kelly’s lucky quick pick numbers - 18 32 50 51 53 58 - were automatically entered into the January 9, 2008 drawing. She said she didn’t know she was a winner until the Lottery broke the good news – to her husband.

“I don’t remember a thing,” said Kelly. “I know my husband called me and then I called the Lottery, but after that, it’s all a blank. It hasn’t sunk in yet.”

As the sole winner of the $12,000,000 Lotto jackpot, Kelly opted to receive her prize in one lump sum payment totaling $6,701,742. She will take home $4,567,237 after required tax withholdings.

Kelly is one of approximately 83,000 New Yorkers statewide who participate in the Lotto Subscription program. Players who purchase a Lotto subscription select how many games they want to play per drawing and how many weeks they want to play. Subscribers have their lucky numbers or a computer-generated set of a quick pick numbers entered automatically into the twice weekly Lotto drawings at a discounted rate.

Kelly is the first Putnam County resident of 2008 to receive a Lottery prize check valued at $1,000,000 or more. She is the county’s 5th new Lottery Millionaire in the past six months leading some to ask what’s behind this Lottery hot streak.

“Random luck plain and simple,” said Lottery Drawing Emcee Marissa Rodriguez. “We have more games and more prizes and more people playing then ever before earning record revenues for education. It’s a lucky streak for all concerned.”

Other recent Putnam County Lottery Millionaires include two-time Lotto winners Eugene Angelo and family ($2,500,000 in 1996 and $5,000,000 in 2007); Mega Millions jackpot winner William J. Albertson of Mahopac ($75,000,000); James O’Mara of Mahopac ($1,000,000); and Raymond Steadman of Lake Peekskill ($1,000,000).

Kelly said she had no immediate plans for her sudden windfall aside from some new carpeting. “We’ll do good things with it,” she said. “That’s the extent of our plans for now.”

Faithful Oregon Powerball Player Wins $10,000



02/04/08 Portland, Oregon: Toilose Mapapalangi of Portland calls herself a faithful Powerball player. To add to her excitement, and give her luck as many chances to work as she can, Toilose buys her Powerball tickets at different locations. Well, the ticket bought at 7-Eleven, on N Lombard St., in Portland, turned out to be the luckiest one so far. Toilose matched four of five numbers, plus the power ball, to become a $10,000 winner. Her winning ticket was one of two winning $10,000 tickets, and overall, one of 9,730 winning tickets for Oregon Lottery Powerball players from the drawing.


Toilose, a native of Tonga, has eight children. She was excited to win, but seemed even more excited because her granddaughter’s 1st birthday was the next day. The timing is just great, said Toilose.


Toilose didn’t know which Lottery retailer she’d purchased her winning ticket from until her ticket was verified, and the Lottery’s customer service representative checked for her. Toilose hopes to be back one day to win the Powerball jackpot.

Virginia Retired Plumber Cleans Up With Six Winning Lotto Tickets

02/4/08 Virginia Retired Plumber Cleans Up With Six Winning Lotto Tickets


February 1, 2008
I never play one play. I always play multiple times with the same numbers.
That strategy worked for Thomas Zoby of Virginia Beach. He bought six tickets for the January 8, 2008, Virginia Lottery Cash 5 night drawing, all with the same five numbers – and they all won!
But there was one problem. When he looked up the winning numbers on the Virginia Lottery’s Web site www.valottery.com, he read them wrong and he thought he had not won. So the tickets just sat next to his computer until he happened to go back to the store where he purchased them, Indian Lakes Food Mart at 1196 Indian Lakes Blvd. in Virginia Beach.


The clerk said, ‘I think you’re the winner,’ Mr. Zoby recalled. So I went home and checked it again.
It’s a good thing he did. The six winning combinations were worth a cool $600,000. Those winning numbers were 1-4-13-14-26.
Cash 5 drawings are held daily at 1:59 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. The chances of winning the $100,000 top prize are 1 in 278,256.

Lottery winner in Olympia,Washington

02/04/08 Olympia,Washington: WORDS CAN'T DESCRIBE HOW WOODINVILLE WINNER FEELS


Lottery Winner Plans to Save and Spend Winnings Wisely
OLYMPIA Lindsey Burchak, Jr. was feeling good when he walked into the
Washington’s Lottery Everett office on Thursday. The Woodinville resident
knew he was holding a slip of paper worth $175,000!




Words can’t describe how I feel right now, he said pensively.
The day before, Burchak had picked his daughter up from school and
stopped at Sami’s Shell to fill his tank. After pumping his gas,
he went inside to pay and decided to purchase a Hit 5 ticket for that
evening’s drawing. When he checked his ticket after the drawing,
he was delighted to find out he had won!


The cashier ran my ticket through the machine, and out popped a
second piece of paper behind it, so I knew something was up, said Burchak.
Sure enough, the second slip said I was a winner.
Burchak, who has been married for 16 years to his wife Susan
and has two daughters, is going to save his winnings and doesn’t plan on making any big purchases.

Burchak matched all five numbers in the January 30 Hit 5 drawing
- 18-26-35-37-38. He split the $350,000 cashpot with one other winner
who matched the same numbers. Burchak’s winning ticket was purchased
at Sami’s Shell located at 15606 NE Woodinville Duvall PL in Woodinville.

Pennsylvania Cash 5 lotto now starts at $125,000

Effective Feb. 1 : LOTTERY’S CASH 5 STARTING JACKPOT INCREASING TO $125K


MIDDLETOWN,PA. The Pennsylvania Lottery will increase the starting jackpot of CASH 5, its longest-running jackpot game, from $100,000 to $125,000 beginning Feb. 1.

Loyal CASH 5 players have told us that they want higher jackpots, and increasing the starting jackpot to $125,000 will allow us to offer higher average jackpots without making drastic changes to the way the game is played,” said Lottery Executive Director Ed Trees.
The Lottery will increase the number of balls in the CASH 5 game matrix by four, from 39 to 43, which will allow the Lottery to increase the starting jackpot and offer higher overall jackpots. Players will select five numbers from 1 to 43.


For players who use play slips or purchase CASH 5 tickets, the current play slips featuring numbers 1 through 39 can be used through the Jan. 31 drawing. New play slips with the numbers 1 through 43 will be required for drawings on and after Feb. 1. New play slips will be distinguished by yellow shading showing Games A, C, and E.
In February, the Lottery will also conduct a buy five CASH 5 tickets, get one CASH 5 ticket free” promotion. Players will receive one free quick-pick CASH 5 ticket for the next available drawing with each block of five CASH 5 tickets purchased. The block of five tickets do not have to be quick picks; players may choose their own numbers and still receive the free quick-pick CASH 5 ticket. CASH 5 debuted in 1992 as a weekly drawing game with a minimum jackpot of $100,000, and it quickly became a player favorite. Over the past 16 years, the number of drawings increased to twice weekly in 1993; to three times a week in 1995; and to four times a week in 1996. It became a nightly game in 1998. CASH 5 is the longest-running jackpot game in Pennsylvania Lottery history.

Frederick MD Grandmother Wins Lotto

02/02/08 Frederick,MD Grandmother Wins Lotto



Baltimore, Maryland: A $50,000 Bonus Match 5 winner has her husband
to thank for her big win since he picked the numbers for her to play.
Last night, while the lucky winner and her husband watched the drawing
on television, her husband realized they had the winning numbers.
I think we won $400, he said to his wife. That’s when she told him
it was actually $50,000. They immediately called their
daughter to tell her the good news.


The grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of five, came
to Lottery headquarters today, with her daughter, to claim the winning ticket.
The woman and her husband owned and operated a janitorial business
for 32 years before retiring. Still excited about her win, the avid

RALEIGH.NC., ANOTHER FIRST-TIME PLAYER HITS BIG PRIZE

02/02/08 ANOTHER FIRST-TIME PLAYER HITS BIG PRIZE


Friends Choose Lucky Ticket for Gastonia Man-
RALEIGH- Connie Johnson of Charlotte said she had never before purchased a lottery ticket, but
her first time playing she got a big payoff. Johnson won $200,000 after letting the computer pick
her numbers for the Jan. 16 Powerball drawing. Her numbers matched the five white balls, but not
the Powerball.

Johnson told North Carolina Education Lottery (NCEL) officials that she was in shock upon
learning that she had won. She bought the ticket at the Quik Shoppe on Brookshire Boulevard in
Charlotte. She said her winnings will help her buy a new home. A first-time Carolina Cash 5
player claimed her prize of $194,592 Friday.
Some friends of Michael Hovis were headed to a local store in Gastonia and asked if he wanted
anything. He said, Yea, get me some lottery tickets. When the friends found out that one of the
tickets they purchased for Hovis was worth $150,000, the friends jokingly said they had given him
the wrong ticket. They bought the $150,000 Anniversary Cash ticket at Kingsway #2 on Union
Road in Gastonia. Hovis said he would save some, maybe take a trip and give some money to his
two grown children.


A Lumberton woman says her heart started really pumping when she checked the NCEL Web
site and saw that she matched the five white balls on the Jan. 12 Powerball drawing, which meant
she won a $200,000 prize. Shreen Thadani let the computer pick her numbers when she bought
the ticket at Tanglewood Liberty on North Roberts Avenue in Lumberton. She said today the she is
not sure yet what she will do with her winnings.
Five tickets worth $10,000 to $20,000 each were sold in Graham, Lumberton, Kannapolis,
Asheville and Greensboro for last night’s Powerball drawing. Matching four white balls and the
Powerball normally is worth $10,000, but since two of the tickets were Power Played and the
multiplier for the drawing was a two, those prizes were doubled. A total of 35,347 players won
prizes in the Wednesday drawing ranging from $20,000 down to $3 for a total payout in prizes
worth $272,249. No one won the jackpot so the jackpot for Saturday’s drawing is worth an
estimated $43 million.
