Double blow – Only a few months after winning a million dollars in a scratch game, a woman won again the same sum
According to the saying, luck never strikes twice at the same door. Fake ! An American can testify. In Florida, at the end of April, this 67 -year -old woman won a million dollars on a scratch game, only a few months after having won the same sum to the same game, reports Miami Herald.
According to a statement from Florida’s lottery, the sixty -something man tried her luck at the game 500X The Cash, which costs $ 50. If she has not won the jackpot, which amounts to $ 25 million, she still won a nice jackpot. Having the choice between an annuity or a single payment, she preferred the second option, thus pocketing $ 640,000.
When history repeats itself
She had a chance on 274.004 to win the second prize. A few months earlier, luck had already smiled at him. In November, she also discovered $ 1 million by scraping a ticket from the same game.
It is not uncommon for the lottery winners to retry their luck. In December 2023, an American won $ 10 million to a scratch game. A sum he had already won to another game the previous year. Sometimes a blow of fate comes to get involved. Still in the United States, at the end of 2021, a man bought two identical lottery tickets in mistake. Result: he won the jackpot on both! The player has chosen to receive $ 780,000 at once.
