"I honestly could not believe it. As I was looking at the numbers I said, 'Wait a second, those look like my numbers!'" he said.
The winner, who scored a $1,000 Keno prize earlier this year, said he has been playing the same Cash 5 numbers for almost 10 years.
The man said he tries to never miss a Cash 5 drawing, because one time he failed to buy a ticket and his usual numbers came up as winners.
He said he plans to use his winnings to buy a new garage door and replace his washer and dryer.
