BISMARCK, ND – Multiple North Dakota Lottery players have won big over the last seven days, one hitting a $150,000 Powerball with Power Play prize and four others winning $22,000 2by2 jackpot prizes! The $150,000 Powerball with Power Play ticket matched four white balls and the Powerball (22, 23, 28, 36, 54; Powerball 13; Power Play 3) on the Monday, March 9, draw. The four, $22,000 2by2 jackpot prizes were won on March 3, 4, 6, and 9.
The Powerball prize was $50,000, but as the player had also purchased the Power Play option, the ticket is worth $150,000. The lucky ticket was purchased via the North Dakota Lottery’s Pick & Click online play service by an anonymous player from Bottineau and the player has yet to claim the prize. The Pick & Click online play service gives players the option to buy tickets, – via the Lottery website or mobile app – for a single draw, multiple draws, or four weeks at a time with a subscription.
The four, $22,000 2by2 jackpot winning tickets were sold at Cenex (209 4th Ave SW, Garrison), Hornbacher’s Osgood (4151 45th St. South, Fargo), Petro Serve USA (W. Main St., Valley City), and Berger’s Landing Strip (100 A Avenue, Emerado). All four retailers will each receive a $500 bonus for selling the winning 2by2 tickets. The prizes won in Fargo and Valley City have been claimed by anonymous players from Fargo and Rogers, ND.
“The lottery luck continues in North Dakota” said Thomas Lawler, director of the North Dakota Lottery. “Over the past three months, North Dakota Lottery players have won thirteen $22,000 2by2 jackpots, and two $150,000 Powerball prizes. 2by2 has had 763 jackpot winners and 32 Tuesday Doubler jackpot winners since the game launched in early 2006.” Winners have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim their prize.
