This, of course, does not replace the Vegas trips of the past, but it keeps my gambling needs satiated.
A few weeks ago, I parleyed $25 into $70. I pocketed $40 and put $30 into the machine on my next visit and won $10.
Boo! I prefer winning all of the time, obviously...
Today, I was out running errands and filled up with gas and cashed in that $10 winner and added $30. I was feeling lucky.
I bought two $10 tickets and four $5 ones. For my $20 in $5 tickets, I garnered $5. Not good.
Then I began to scratch at the first $10 ticket. The very first number matched! $20! Then the next one: $20. I was ahead! Yay!
The third one? A $50 match! What was going on...?
In all, there were 15 potentials for matching winning numbers. They all matched!
• Ten $20 winners.
• Four $50 winners.
• One $100 winner.
The take? $500. And on this game, there are two bonus areas where that amount could have multiplied up to 100 times the value... I almost could not scratch those areas. But I did and it turns out that 1 times 500 times 1 equals 500, which I am cool with...
This is my biggest lottery winning. The gas station doesn't have that kind of cash, so the ticket goes to the grocery store Monday!
The second $10 ticket? Another $10 for a total of $515!
What will we do with the Ohio Lottery winnings? The cash goes right into The Orbit Room project! A new couch is likely.
More later,
Mark
