A Michigan lottery player won $150,000 playing Cashword

Some people don't believe in beginner's luck, but a woman from Macomb County does after playing the Cashword instant-win game for the first time and winning $150,000.

In an interview with the Michigan Lottery, the anonymous player said:

I had never played Lottery games online before, but I decided to try out the Cashword game while on MichiganLottery.com one day.

She was stunned when the prize amount of $150,000 popped up on the screen with fireworks blazing.

I instantly started hyperventilating from shock and excitement! I still can't believe that I won my very first time playing online.

The 25-year-old player recently visited the Michigan Lottery headquarters in Lansing to claim her winnings.

She said:

I just graduated from college last week, so winning this prize means I can already pay off all my student loans and it gives me a fresh start financially.
