There are different types of lottery players. Mainly they are grouped into the occasional player and the frequent player. Occasional players buy tickets when they feel like it and usually don’t have a strategy or a set of numbers or simply don’t think much about the game but will buy it if it catches their attention or if the jackpot is very tempting. Frequent regular players have formed a habit out of buying lottery, some have a strategy that will include a certain string of “lucky” numbers or have a special “favorite” place where they buy their tickets and set away some money from their budgets do play this game either weekly or monthly in such a way that playing the lottery becomes an item of their budget.

Amanda Gonzales-Osborne. She enjoys playing the lottery and plays it regularly with the hope of winning a big jackpot one day. However one day she decided to have a very close and clear look at her lottery budget and see where she was standing. That is when she realized, after having every win and lose accounted that her combined winnings after all her years of playing amounted to no more than $200. Not promising you might think and it might have discouraged many by looking at the hard, cold numbers. But she was not deterred and she finally did win a big one in November of 2011.

Amanda Gonzales-Osborne won $287,120 playing Michigan Lottery’s Fantasy 5 game.

Michigan’s Fantasy 5 game is a 5/39 game, meaning that you have to match 5-out-of-39 numbers to win the jackpot. The odds of matching all five numbers are approximately 1-in-576,000. Jackpots start at $100,000 and increase if they are not won.

The jackpot was growing big and as a frequent player, Amanda had set her eyes on the jackpot and got tickets. She was actually very eager to check her numbers and did it using her phone. She went into the Michigan Lottery’s website through her mobile and soon discovered that she had won. Finally after all the years of playing and only small wins to account for it, Amanda won big with Fantasy 5, one of her favorite games.

“I couldn’t stop screaming,” is how Amanda described the moment she found out that she won.

Amanda plans to use the money to pay off her bills. And although she already hit the jackpot, she said that she will continue play lottery frequently in the hope of winning it big again one day. After all the science of everything in life is perseverance, even when it is something as “random” as lottery. If you come to think about it, the only way to not win is by not playing.
