LOTTERY POOL CLAIMS POWERBALL PRIZE
May 1, 2008
Terry Jenkins of Ennis has claimed a $10,000 Powerball prize on behalf of a lottery pool from Rio Tinto, a mining company, in Three Forks. Jenkins bought the winning ticket at Rocky Mountain Supply in Ennis for the April 26 drawing.
Jenkins and three co-workers at Rio Tinto won $10,000 from Powerball by matching four white balls and the Powerball number. The other number they had was nine, and they needed a seven. Jenkins joked, “We were so close, yet so far away.” When the Powerball jackpot reaches $200 Million, 19 additional co-workers join the pool.
The pool only plays Powerball, and has been playing for 15 years. “We never miss a draw. We always play the same numbers for every draw,” Jenkins said.
The Rio Tinto pool previously won a $5,000 Powerball prize. Jenkins said, “We put our winnings back in the pool and kept playing. We’ll play ‘til we hit the jackpot!”
Each of the four winners has a different plan for his prize.
