MD Woman Wins $150K From Virginia Lottery

SILVER SPRING, MD — Kanlayanee Supho, a Silver Spring woman who works in Virginia's McLean area, recently discovered that she was the owner of a $150,000 lottery ticket.

Virginia Lottery said in a Thursday release that Supho bought a ticket for the Dec. 10 Powerball drawing but hadn't realized until two months later that she had won.

While Supho's winning ticket normally would've won her $50,000 since she matched four of the draws and the Powerball number, she tripled her jackpot by spending a dollar on Power Play.

Supho bought her ticket at the McLean Wegmans at 1835 Capital One Drive South.

The Silver Spring woman says she doesn't have any plans for her winnings just yet.

Profits from the Virginia Lottery help fund the state's K-12 education programs.
