Alberta man celebrates second scratch and win lottery win this year
A Lethbridge man is celebrating his second big win on a scratch and win ticket this year. James Hill won $200,000 on a $10 scratch ticket he purchased in February, and now he's won $100,000 on a Poker Lotto scratch ticket. Hill says it took him a minute to believe what he saw when he scanned the ticket. 'I couldn't read the screen at first,' he said in a Thursday news release. 'I had to scan it three times and then have the cashier scan it for me again.' Hill says after his first scratch and win success he had hoped to purchase a new vehicle and put what was left over into savings. This time around he says he's going to put the money in the bank and 'just relax.' Hill bought his winning ticket from the Circle K on Highlands Road in Lethbridge. He won by matching all five cards drawn on the May 14 nightly draw – the queen of spades, four of clubs, seven of clubs, ace of diamonds and seven of diamonds.
