BALTIMORE, MD – A Baltimore woman whose name was not released due to privacy concerns won the Pick 5 lottery twice in 2022. After playing the Pick 3 and Pick 4 for years, the Baltimore resident decided to add Pick 5 to her weekly lottery ticket purchases in October.
Then she won her first $25,000 prize. Two months later, on December 21st, she got an early holiday gift, winning $25,000 again.
“This is my second trip down here,” she said on Jan. 19 at Lottery headquarters in Baltimore, where she claimed her prize from the Dec. 21 drawing. The loyal player won after placing a 50-cent straight bet on the number 25957 in the Dec. 21 and 22 evening drawings.
Instead of keeping all of the winnings for herself, she helped a relative in need pay off bills, putting the rest into a savings account.
“I’m going to put it in the bank for a rainy day,” she said.
