There are times when taking significant risks can lead to substantial rewards. And without a doubt, a woman from Saginaw County, Michigan, is more than pleased with the outcome of her recent $30 gamble in the Michigan Lottery’s $200,000,000 Riches game.
On Monday, the lottery announced that the 62-year-old managed to transform that amount into an impressive $4 million prize by playing the state lottery’s scratcher game.
Multiple $4 million prizes still left in Michigan Lottery game
The unidentified victor, a woman who prefers to keep her identity a secret, purchased her significant win at Singh’s Market located at 805 Shattuck Road in Saginaw. She excitedly exclaimed that she couldn’t contain her excitement upon discovering that she had secured one of the $4 million top prizes in the $200 million game.
“In a news release from the Michigan Lottery, the woman expressed her fondness for playing the $30 games. She recounted how she bought a ticket, eagerly scratched the barcode, and proceeded to scan it. To her surprise, a message prompted her to file a claim. Determined to confirm the outcome, she scanned the ticket two more times, only to receive the same message.”
After heading out to my car, I eagerly started scratching the ticket. Lo and behold, the ‘CASH’ symbol emerged, indicating a significant win. Carefully, I continued scratching to unveil the amount. When I saw the ‘4’ followed by the ‘M,’ it was impossible to contain my excitement, and I let out a joyous shout!
Instead of receiving annuity payments totaling $4 million for her prize, the player opted for a single payment of approximately $2.5 million. She intends to utilize her winnings to acquire a house and invest the remaining amount.
In March, the $200,000,000 Riches game was introduced by the Michigan Lottery. Each ticket priced at $30 presents an opportunity for players to win prizes that range from $30 to $4 million. Currently, there are still over $171 million worth of prizes available, including two top prizes of $4 million, 33 prizes of $10,000, and 802 prizes of $3,000.
Multi-state lottery games ramping up
Michigan Lottery players have been enjoying a significant increase in big wins this year. With nearly 36 big-ticket prizes already claimed in 2021 from scratcher games and multi-state lottery ventures, it’s clear that luck is on their side. This is a substantial improvement compared to last year, where only 48 big scores were reported. In fact, the yearly average from 2009 to 2020 was a modest 32.8, according to the lottery’s Big Winners database.
The winning ticket is a rare seven-figure score for a player residing outside the six most-populous counties in Michigan.
At present, in Michigan, the Lucky for Life offerings are transitioning from being held twice a week to taking place on a daily basis.
Starting next month, players will be granted three opportunities per week to win Powerball, based on numerous reports outside the state. The addition of a Monday drawing will supplement the existing schedule of Wednesdays and Saturdays.
