Georgia man wins 3 times in one week, scoops $1+ million from Georgia Lottery
Have you ever scratched a million playing an instant lottery game? Juan Cubero just did.
A resident of the city Marietta, which is tiny but one of the most historic and famous cities in the American South and located just north of Atlanta, Georgia, managed to literally scratch his way to unexpected but deserved wealth, pocketing more than $1 million in a single week.
It was thanks to his gambling passion as well as three winning tickets of Georgia Lottery instant games.
A week ago, Juan Cubero won $1,000 when playing the $5 per ticket Georgia Lottery’s Lucky Payday game.Encouraged by the initial success, Cubero won another $1,000 on the new game, $100 Million Cash Spectacular. This Georgia Lottery ticket was $10 game.It was not over. Tenderly holding Lady Luck (while his wife Isabel Cubero was away), Juan Cubero went resolutely to Marietta’s AM PM Citgo Food Mart on Bells Ferry Road and bought another $10 Cash Spectacular ticket.
And what? "I was about to cash the first $1,000 ticket when my husband called and said, 'I have a better one,' " Isabel Cubero told lottery officials. "I didn't believe him."It seems like Isabel has to believe that Georgia Lottery just produced the unique triple winner, as Cubero won again. This time, a million dollars payable over 20 years!
Georgia Lottery spokesperson said the Lottery has had repeat winners before, but this triple win was named "a unique situation."
Congratulations to the Cuberos from GamblingGates.com! Except for vacation, the family expects to use some of the lottery winnings to contribute to charity. Thanks.
