Pennsylvanian “Rich” becomes RICH with $1 Million Power Play Win!

Pennsylvanian “Rich” becomes RICH with $1 Million Power Play Win!
A Langhorne woman is one of Pennsylvania 's newest millionaires, having matched all five white balls in the April 22 Powerball drawing. Patricia Rich had 04-05-06-18-27 , but not the red Powerball, 24, to win $1 million, less 25 percent federal withholding. She was the only Match 5 winner in Pennsylvania for the drawing. Matching 5-of-5 white ball numbers without the red Powerball number – second prize in the Powerball game – is normally worth $200,000. However, in the April 22 Powerball drawing, players who purchased the PowerPlay option saw their winnings multiply five times, since five was the PowerPlay number randomly selected prior to that night's Powerball drawing.

Rich says she selected her Powerball ticket numbers using her children's and grandson's birthdates.
