Overview

  • Deborah Gates of Franklin, N.C., used Power Play on a $3 Powerball ticket to double a $50,000 win to $100,000.
  • After federal and state withholdings, Gates collected more than $71,000 at North Carolina Education Lottery headquarters.
  • A 32-year-old Michigan player hit the 100X game’s $2 million top prize on a $20 ticket bought at Freck’s Fresh Mart in Canton and opted for a lump sum of about $1.3 million.
  • A 26-year-old Michigan woman won $300,000 on a Safe Cracker Cashword scratch-off, claimed at lottery headquarters, and plans to buy a car and invest while keeping her identity private.
  • All three cases were confirmed by their state lotteries, with winners describing disbelief or emotional reactions when they realized they had won.
