June 28 (UPI) -- A Virginia man who split a $150,000 Powerball prize with a friend collected a $100,000 prize from another drawing game just three months later.

Jerome Hall of Chesapeake matched all five numbers in the Virginia Lottery's Cash 5 game June 11, 4-15-20-24-30, earning the $100,000 top prize.


Hall bought his ticket at the Shell Food Mart in Chesapeake only three months after his last brush with lottery luck.

He and a friend decided to play Powerball together in March and ended up winning a $150,000 prize.
