BATON ROUGE - Louisiana Lottery players won more than $11 million in prizes in November, highlighted by one player who won $200,000 on Powerball and two players who each won a $50,000 Cash Quest jackpot.

President Randy Davis said there were over $5.3 million in Louisiana Powerball, Lotto, Cash Quest, Pick 4 and Pick 3 winnings and over $5.7 million in scratch-off game winnings last month.

November's winners also included 11 Powerball tickets for $10,000 each, 118 Lotto tickets averaging $2,055 each and one Cash Quest ticket for $3,000.  Pick 3 winners won a total of $1,702,680 and Pick 4 winners won a total of $1,465,100.

"Last month over 17,000 Power Play purchasers won a bonus total of $245,321 in addition to their regular Powerball prize total of $91,237," Davis said. 

The Power Play option offers Powerball ticket purchasers the chance to multiply their winnings up to five times on all non-jackpot prizes for an additional $1. "With the match-5 prize doubled now to $200,000, Power Play means more million-dollar winners," he added.

Davis reminded ticket purchasers to play responsibly, encouraging anyone who has a gambling problem, or friends and family of anyone with a gambling problem, to call toll-free 1-877-770-7867 for help.  Ticket purchasers must be at least 21 years of age.
