An Arkansan recently won her biggest lottery prize using her loved ones’ birthdays as lucky numbers.

S. Marshall of West Memphis won $390,000 in the April 28 Natural State Jackpot drawing. She claimed her prize at the Arkansas Scholarship Lottery Claim Center on May 2.

The winning ticket was ordered via the Jackpocket mobile app, and the winning numbers were 2, 11, 17, 20 and 24.

Marshall ordered the winning ticket online after seeing the rising jackpot.

“I really start playing when it gets high,” she shared with lottery officials.

Though she occasionally plays instant games, the West Memphis woman prefers draw games like Natural State Jackpot, Cash 3, Cash 4 and LOTTO. For this drawing, she used her sons’ birthdays as her winning numbers.

The combination proved lucky when she checked the draw results the following Monday.

Initially, Marshall thought she had only won $9. However, when she saw “Big Winner” displayed on the Jackpocket app screen, she looked again and realized she had won the $390,000 jackpot.

“I still can’t believe it,” the woman said.

Shocked, Marshall first shared the good news with her sons.

The winner plans to relocate and buy a new home with her prize. She also hopes to assist her family financially. Though she intends to continue playing lottery games, the Natural State Jackpot will remain her favorite “because [she] won.”

Now drawing daily, the Natural State Jackpot is $70,000. Following each jackpot win, the amount resets at $50,000 and increases by $5,000 for each draw until it reaches $100,000. After that, it increases by $10,000.
