Keeping a close eye on The Jack paid off for an Ottawa County woman, who won $185,063.

“I was out to lunch and my husband, Darrell, noticed that The Jack was getting pretty high,” said Chris-Ann Martini. “We kept watching here and there and the next thing we knew, The Jack had reset to $10,000.

“I had a lucky feeling, so I walked over to the scanner to check my ticket and then had a co-worker double check it for me with the Lottery app. I was then, and still am, in shock!”
