Winner secures $50K Bonus Match 5 prize via Quick Pick numbers in lottery draw
In the heart of the nation's capital, a mystery has arisen among the buzz of Washington D.C. A local resident, a former U.S. Postal Service employee, has struck it rich, securing the top prize of $50,000 in Maryland's Bonus Match 5 game. The Maryland Lottery made the announcement on Monday, leaving excited speculation regarding the lucky winner's identity.
Though the identity of the lucky anonymous player remains a secret, they did grant an interview with a Lottery official, sharing insights about a system they employ when playing the lottery. The special system, they claim, played a crucial role in their victory.
The winning Bonus Match 5 ticket was purchased at Meyers Liquors, located at 3601 Old Silver Hill Road in Suitland, Maryland. The retailer will receive a well-deserved $500 bonus from the Maryland Lottery as a token of appreciation for their contribution to the lucky winner's windfall.
In the interview, the elated winner shared that they felt like they were on a winning streak, having matched four winning numbers on several occasions. What's surprising, however, is that the winning numbers were "Quick Pick," a seemingly random selection of numbers that most players would probably ignore.
When discussing their system, the winner revealed that they would analyze past drawings and select five numbers that appeared more frequently. If their chosen numbers failed to produce a win, they might opt to start afresh. The Tri-State Megabucks Selection System[1], for example, is a popular strategy used by many players which involves focusing on the most frequent drawn numbers.
Despite their considerable win, the fortunate player plans to stick with their system for future games. "If my system gets stale, I will reset and find 10 new numbers, or even purchase more random numbers," they said. Currently, they have no concrete plans for the unexpected money.
Bonus Match 5 offers players a chance to win a prize ranging from $2 to the top prize of $50,000. The game's drawings take place seven days a week, providing numerous opportunities for players to try their luck. The odds of winning the top prize with a $1 ticket are 1 in 575,757, while the odds of scoring the top prize with a $2 ticket are 1 in 191,919. The overall odds of winning any prize with a $1 ticket and a $2 ticket are 1 in 52 and 1 in 17, respectively[2].

They also mentioned considering the Tri-State Megabucks Selection System, a popular strategy among players, as a potential alternative.
