Jane Regan Claims Prize From June 6 Hot Lotto® Drawing

DES MOINES, Iowa – A Dubuque woman won $10,000 playing Hot Lotto in the June 6 drawing.

Jane Regan bought her winning Hot Lotto ticket at McCann’s Service, 690 W. Locust St. in Dubuque. She claimed her prize Monday at the Iowa Lottery's regional office in Cedar Rapids.

The winning numbers in the $8.58 million Hot Lotto jackpot drawing on June 6 were: 12 - 20 - 27 - 28 - 37 and Hot Ball 9. There was no jackpot winner for the June 6 drawing.

Regan won a $10,000 prize by matching the first five numbers but missing the Hot Ball on her ticket. If she had added the Hot Lotto Sizzler® to her ticket, she would have multiplied her $10,000 win by three to claim a $30,000 prize.

Hot Lotto players choose five numbers from a pool of 39 and another number, called the Hot Ball, from a pool of 19. The Hot Lotto jackpot starts at $1 million and grows until someone wins it. Tickets in the game cost $1. Hot Lotto drawings are held at about 9:40 p.m. on Wednesdays and Saturdays, just before the Powerball drawings.

Players can multiply their non-jackpot prizes by three with the Hot Lotto Sizzler option. The cost is $1 per play. Prizes are always tripled with the Hot Lotto Sizzler.

Winning numbers may be checked at the lottery Web site at www.ialottery.com or through the winning numbers' hot line at (515) 323-4633. Winning numbers may also be checked with lottery retail outlets or by calling the lottery at (515) 725-7900 from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday.

Players may visit the Iowa Lottery at 2323 Grand Ave. in Des Moines or go to one of the lottery's regional offices in Council Bluffs, Storm Lake, Mason City or Cedar Rapids to claim prizes.

Since the Iowa Lottery's start in 1985, its players have won more than $2.2 billion in prizes while the lottery has raised more than $1.1 billion for state programs.
