Published August 27, 2009 10:29 am - According to the Oklahoma Lottery... Tahlequah woman hits Power Play for $10K Dathina Triplett of Tahlequah never misses a Powerball draw, and recently her persistence paid off with a $10,000 win.
Triplett purchased her winning ticket at The Log Store on State Highway 82. She uses random numbers she has chosen, and in the future, she may pay the extra $1 for Power Play. “I will seriously consider selecting Power Play from now on,” Triplett said. If she had chosen the Power Play option, her $10,000 win would have been five times that amount. When asked about her plans for her new cash, Triplett said she is unsure. “I don’t have any plans, really,” she said. “It was so unexpected. I will probably just put it in my bank account.” Triplett plays the lottery knowing that a portion of its proceeds benefits Oklahoma education. “It’s a good thing, since it helps out schools,” she said. Net proceeds of all lottery games are used to support improvements and enhancements for Oklahoma education. More than $283 million has been contributed to education since November 2005, with funds directed to common education, career and technical education and to the higher education capital bond issue through the Oklahoma Education Lottery Trust Fund. The Oklahoma Legislature appropriates the OELTF. Proceeds are used statewide to supplement existing funds for a variety of important education purposes, including teacher compensation and benefits, early childhood development programs, college scholarships, classroom technology and construction of educational facilities.
