Summary
- Maryland man wins $150,012 in Powerball drawing
- Frequent lottery player scans tickets, stunned by winnings
- Couple chooses to keep win private, claim prize in Baltimore
In October 2025, a Maryland man experienced a remarkable stroke of luck when his routine stop at a local market after a workout led to a $150,012 Powerball win. The anonymous winner, a frequent player of jackpot games, had purchased both Mega Millions and Powerball tickets on October 16 at Keller's Market in Accokeek.
Several weeks later, while watching television, the man decided to scan his tickets using the Maryland Lottery app and was stunned to see the $150,012 prize amount displayed. Excited by the unexpected windfall, he immediately called his wife to share the incredible news.
The winning ticket contained five lines, with both the Power Play and Double Play options added for an extra dollar each. Although the Double Play did not bring additional winnings, one line matched four white balls and the Powerball, earning a $50,000 prize. Another line matched just the Powerball, adding $4 to the total. Thanks to the Power Play multiplier of three, the couple's total prize grew to $150,012.
The parents of grown children chose to keep their win private and quietly claimed their prize at the Maryland Lottery Headquarters in Baltimore on November 5.
