Lakeside Stop Delivers A Powerball® Prize

Saturday's Drawing Delivered A Second-Place Win Of Over $2 Million

SACRAMENTO - One lucky player picked up a prize-winning Powerball ticket for Saturday's draw from the Americo Food Mart and Gas station in Lakeside, 12402 Woodside Avenue, on the corner of Channel Road and Woodside Avenue. Their ticket matched five numbers, 1,2,19,33, and 51 - just missing the Powerball number of 15. Their winning ticket is worth $2,259,918.

While there was no jackpot won on Saturday, another winner matched four numbers and the Powerball, for a prize worth $55,740. That winner was purchased in Sebastopol, from the Sequoia Mini Mart, 1382 Gravenstein Highway South.

Both players now have 180 days from Saturday to claim their prize.

The mission of the California Lottery is to raise additional funding for public education, helping to supplement school budgets for K-12 as well as colleges and universities. The California Lottery has raised more than $48 billion for public schools through the responsible sale of its games since 1985. Lottery funding for schools is largely discretionary, so administrators and educators can use Lottery money for instructional programs and services they may not otherwise afford. The California Lottery features eight draw games and dozens of new instant Scratchers games each year. More than 95% of California Lottery sales revenue goes back to the community in the form of prize payments, retailer commissions and bonuses, and contributions to education. More information about who benefits can be found here. As jackpots rise, the California Lottery would like to remind players that gambling should be fun. Borrowing money to play, spending above a person's budget, or using money intended for other purposes can ultimately lead to significant problems for players and their families. If a player recognizes that they have a gambling problem or if someone knows of someone who may have a problem, the Lottery recommends calling the California Problem Gambling Help Line at 1- 800-GAMBLER.
