VISIT TO DENTIST PAYS OFF FOR MARYLAND LOTTERY POWERBALL PLAYER

A lottery player from Maryland who suffered through a visit to the dentist got his reward afterwards as he won $50,000 on the Powerball.The Maryland Lottery player told officials that he visited his dentist last week, and after leaving the office he decided to treat himself to a ticket for the November 8th Powerball drawing.
