Albert Powell

Just about every day for the past 15 years, District resident Albert Powell stops by a D.C. Lottery retailer to buy scratchers. "I just buy a lot of scratchers," Powell said. "All of them, any of them." So, when we came out with our new scratcher, Mucho Cash Fiesta, Powell didn't hesitate to include it in his rotation, and it paid off. He won one of the top prizes of $50,000 instantly, after buying his ticket from South Dakota Ave. Exxon. He doesn't have plans for the money yet, but Powell says his wife does.
