Iwin.com Serves Up a Fresh-Squeezed Florida Millionaire

``I usually play games on iwin.com to relax, but winning a million bucks has been pretty exciting,'' said Reighard. ``I can't wait to cash my check, pay some bills, and take a great trip. This couldn't have come at a better time.''

One week before his big win, Reighard was laid off from his job at a nuclear power plant where he maintained reactor core cooling pumps. Now, with plenty of time and money at his disposal, Reighard plans to use his eXtremelotto windfall to travel to Sweden, pay off the mortgage on his mother's house, and create a financial cushion for his family.

iwin.com's eXtremelotto is among the richest daily lotteries in the world, consisting of three daily drawings with grand prizes totaling $31 million. In the first drawing, correctly choosing six numbers out of a field of 64, as Reighard did, wins the grand prize of $1 million. In the second and third drawings, players have the opportunity to win $10 million and $20 million, respectively, by correctly selecting seven out 64 numbers.

Reighard is the first grand-prize winner under the new $31 million eXtremelotto format which went into effect on August 2. In April 2000, Gary Kopp of Las Vegas, Nevada became iwin.com's first $1 million winner. All eXtremelotto grand prize payouts are fully insured.
