If you thought that the US Powerball lottery was out of stories for the million-dollar prize winners, then you are about to get surprised. The US Powerball is back to increasing your motivation as well as your motivation towards the lottery games with the latest announcement.

Kevin Holland’s US Powerball Playing Journey

This time, the US Powerball lottery has picked Kevin Holland from New York, who has won prize money worth $1,000,000 playing the US Powerball. For Holland, it was something that he had never imagined in his lifetime, but he did end up winning the prize.

Holland revealed that he has been playing the US Powerball almost on a regular basis. Throughout his participation, Holland never once thought of winning a million-dollar prize, let alone the jackpot prize money.

He only participated in the US Powerball to try his luck and win small prizes such as $100, $1,000, or something that was below a million.

Holland revealed that he had gone through the odds of winning the million-dollar prizes or more. As he saw that the odds of winning a million-dollar prize is one in several million, he thought it would be better not to aim for it at all.

However, things worked in a completely different manner for Kevin Holland, and he ended up winning huge prize money. Holland revealed that he doesn’t check his ticket for a month or two, and then checks the results in a single go.

This is exactly what he did for the particular draw, and although the draw was from January, he didn’t check it until the beginning of March.

Kevin’s $1,000,000 Winning

Kevin Holland had participated in the January 12, 2022 draw for the US Powerball game. The winning numbers for the January 12 drawing were 33-22-12-21-30 and the Powerball number was 24.

The Power Play for the January 12, 2022 draw was 4X that can multiply a prize money four-time, given the player has the relevant option added to the ticket.

From the draw, Kevin Holland successfully matched five primary numbers and won the $1,000,000 prize money. If Kevin had added the Power Play option to this ticket, he could have won $2,000,000, as the maximum multiplier that can apply to the tier-2 prize is 2X.

Kevin decided to receive the prize money in a one-time lump sum, taking home $651,000 after the deduction of taxes.

Kevin Holland had purchased his $1,000,000 prize winner from 655 Peninsula Boulevard Petro. The particular petrol station is located in Hempstead.

Apart from Kevin Holland, two other players also won a $1,000,000 prize from the January 12, 2022 draw, and they were from Kansas and Florida.
