Iowa Player Wins $6.14 Million Lotto America Jackpot with $1 Ticket


An incredibly lucky Iowa player won a $6.14 million jackpot with a $1 Lotto America ticket. The odds of winning the Lotto America jackpot are 1 in 25.9 million. The next Lotto America drawing is scheduled for Monday, with the jackpot reset to $2 million. The winning numbers for the Lotto America drawing on Saturday were 12, 13, 21, 40, 49, and Lotto America Star Ball 2.

This is the third time a Lotto America jackpot has been won in Iowa. The jackpot winner can either collect the entire $6.14 million prize via 30 increasing payments over 29 years or take home a one-time lump cash sum of approximately $2.53 million. Each Lotto America ticket costs $1 per play, and the game’s drawings take place on the same nights as Powerball - Mondays, Wednesdays and Saturdays.

The odds of taking down the Lotto America jackpot are 1 in 25.9 million, whereas the odds of winning the Powerball jackpot are 1 in 292.2 million.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
