Maryland Man Wins $50K Lottery Prize Twice in Two Weeks


In a remarkable stroke of luck, a man from Gaithersburg, Maryland, won $50,000 from a lottery twice in two weeks. The man, who goes by the alias 'Carlos', won $50,000 from the Maryland Lottery’s $20 scratch-off ticket, $50,000 Cash.

Carlos won his first $50,000 prize from a $20 Lucky 777 scratch-off ticket he purchased at the Shell station at 501 Quince Orchard Road in Gaithersburg.

Carlos won his second $50,000 prize from a $50,000 Cash game ticket he purchased from Lakeside Beer Wine at 9621 Lost Knife Road in Gaithersburg. Carlos plans to invest his winnings and hopes to win another large prize.

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.
