A LUCKY player walked away with a $50,000 jackpot after several attempts at the game of chance.
The player won US$50 on the first ticket she bought, but continued to test her luck.
The winner, from Maryland, bought some scratch-off tickets on his way home from dinner, according to the state lottery.
She won $50 on her first play and gambled some of the winnings when deciding to buy a few more games.
The grandmother was unlucky on two tickets, but won a $50,000 prize on the third.
She looked at the ticket and a message appeared on the screen.
She was ordered to take him to the lottery outlets to receive the check.
“I immediately knew it was a $50,000 win because the next prize, I could win money at the store,” she said.
The $50,000 cash game offers many chances for players to win a prize.
Tickets are $20 and prizes range from $20 to a whopping $50,000.
And the odds of winning any prize in the game are one in 3.03.
Players can win prizes if they match certain symbols, such as stacks of coins.
They must match their numbers to the winning five digits on the card.
Maryland officials reveal 74 $50,000 prizes remaining, as of April 26.
But the value may include tickets that have been sold but prizes have not yet been claimed.
Lottery players in the US have shared their good luck playing gambling games.
A player in South Carolina decided to play exactly the same game as the person in front of them in the checkout line.
He bought a $5 ticket and ended up raising an impressive $200,000.
And another Nebraska player won gold after a series of scratch-off games.
He scratched several tickets that were not winners.
But he joked that the next one he bought would be the winner.
And the $30 scratch card proved just that and he won a $300,000 prize.
