May 26 (UPI) — An Ohio Lottery player is on a winning streak, collecting prizes of $500 and $10,000 in addition to two $50,000 wins in a six month span.
The Pickerington resident, identified as Antwan, told Ohio Lottery officials his winning streak began with a $50,000 Pick 5 prize in November 2025, which he followed up with a $10,000 win from a Billion scratch-off ticket in March.
His luck continued with a $500 prize from a Pick 3 drawing.
Antwan’s winning streak continued May 21, when he stopped at Turkey Hill Minit Markets on North Cassady Avenue in Columbus to buy some scratch-off tickets.
The player said his first ticket was a $50 winner, so he decided to buy five more. Four of those tickets earned him prizes ranging from $20 to $50, so he decided to buy one more ticket, an Extreme Cash scratch-off.
The final ticket turned out to be a $50,000 winner. Antwan said he left the store employees a tip before rushing off to tell his wife at work.
Antwan said his prize money will go toward making home improvements, fixing up his family’s hair salon and taking a cruise.
“You can’t win unless you play. And I’m going to keep playing,” he said.
