St. Louis man wins $24,000 playing Pick 4
Missouri Lottery: St. Louis man wins $24,000 playing Pick 4
Rating:
If you have a set of numbers you believe in, why not purchase more than one ticket? In Numbers Games like Pick 3 and Pick 4, which have fixed prizes for matching all of the winning numbers, you will win the designated prize for each ticket you hold.
That's exactly what Anthony Nguyen of St. Louis, Missouri, did.
Nguyen purchased four Straight Pick 4 tickets with the combination 5-6-1-4 for the March 16 Midday drawing. That was the winning combination for that drawing and Nguyen won $6,000 for each of his four Pick 4 tickets, bringing his total prize to $24,000.
Nguyen bought his winning tickets at 7-Eleven, 8290 St. Charles Rock Road, in Charlack. He presented the tickets for claim at the St. Louis regional Lottery office on March 17. Nguyen said that the money would be used to pay bills.

Nice $4 Bet!  A mind once stretched by a new idea never returns to its original dimensions!

I agree. That is a very nice win! "No one remembers the person who almost climbed the mountain, only the person who eventually gets to the top."

I have a set of 5 numbers 1,11,16,18,29 that I play on the Mass Cash game
(it's a pick 5 game) which I believe in but so far it's been nothing but misses.
Sometimes I play the same set of numbers 5 times!!! Tonite I'll try again

Very nice hit!
We had someone up the road hit Straight P4 X $100 = $500K
Taxes hurt on that one, still great.
$6,000.00/ $1 Missouri opposed to $5,000/ $1 Maryland is it worth moving there? Maybe? I say no. I've got two I've been waiting for in MD. long time............ that IF either hits will exceed $24K............by a lot.
What is your conceptual continuity? OH NO! WE DIDN'T, DID WE?

Last November, a guy in NY had a dream about his deceased mother, and the next day bought $700 worth of Cash4 tix using her birthday. It came in. He's 3.5 million richer.

I hope to make the lottery news one day when I hit a Pick 4 - straight for $15
