Waldorf, Maryland – A Southern Maryland resident, who prefers to remain anonymous, has struck luck once again, this time with a substantial win of $50,000 on a Pick 5 ticket. Having previously won prizes from Pick 3 and Pick 4 games, the player decided to test fate with Pick 5, selecting the numbers 82871 on a $1 straight ticket.

The winning ticket was purchased at Commerce Liquors in Waldorf, where the fortunate player made the timely decision to play his lucky digits in the April 3 midday drawing, despite originally planning for the April 2 drawing.

Discovering his $50,000 prize while checking his ticket via the Maryland Lottery app the next day, the elated winner dropped his phone in excitement. Expressing gratitude, he stated, “This win couldn’t have come at a better time,” emphasizing the relief it brings to his finances, enabling him to bolster savings and settle outstanding bills.

The winner, who engages in podcasting and enjoys watching sports, particularly football, finds joy in this windfall. Additionally, Commerce Liquors, the Charles County Lottery retailer where the winning ticket was sold, will receive a $500 bonus from the Lottery.
