Ken Amos Sr.

Ken Amos Sr. loves to play Powerball. In fact, a week prior he purchased a quick pick ticket that didn't win, but that didn't stop him from replaying the same numbers. It paid off during the August 24 drawing, just three drawings later, when Mr. Amos found out he won $200,000! Mr. Amos matched 4 of the 5 white-ball numbers plus the red Powerball number and also added the Power Play option to quadruple his winnings!

The first person Mr. Amos told was his wife to "make sure I was seeing the ticket right!"

Mr. Amos purchased his ticket at E-Z Mart in Sulphur.
