LOUISVILLE, Ky. (LEX 18) — A Walton man won $50,000 after a second Kentucky Lottery ticket he purchased matched four white ball numbers and the Powerball.

Michael — who only wishes to use his first name — decided to buy a $2 ticket for Saturday’s drawing.

“I originally bought just one but had a little bit of cash left on me. I was like, I might as well just buy another one, why not?” He bought an $8 ticket with four sets of numbers.

Michael walked out to his car Sunday morning to get something when he remembered his tickets. He went inside, jumped on his computer, and looked at the winning numbers when he discovered he had won $50,000.

“I went to the store where I bought it, and they checked it. They were all like, ‘You’re going to Louisville tomorrow,’" he told officials.

After claiming his ticket Monday morning, Michael received a check for $35,750.

Michael told officials he is considering paying off his car and saving the rest.

Mac’s Liquor & Wine, located at Mary C Grubbs Highway in Walton, will receive $500 for selling the winning ticket.

Monday night's Powerball jackpot is an estimated $675 million with a cash option of $340.9 million.

A Bath County man—who wishes to remain anonymous—won a Kentucky Lottery Scratch-off ticket worth $777,000.

After taxes, he received $551,670.

The man stopped at Liberty Mart 3 in Owingsville for breakfast when he bought the $20 Mega 7’s Limited Edition ticket September 15.

“I got to looking at it (prize amount) when I first thought I won seven thousand. I scratched further and further until I saw seven hundred seventy-seven thousand. I was so nervous. The more I looked at it the more nervous I got,” he told lottery officials.

“Everybody plays to win the big one but when it happens, it’s hard to believe,” he added.

“This is life changing,” his wife said.

As far as what they plan to do with the extra money, he told officials they’re going to take their time and don’t want to do anything too quick.

Liberty Mart 3 will receive a $7,770 bonus for selling the winning ticket.
