ROSEVILLE — Luck has struck not once but twice this year for a St. Paul man playing the Minnesota Lottery.

Jeffrey Bock matched all 12 numbers in Sunday’s “All or Nothing” drawing to win the $100,000 top prize.

Bock ran his ticket through a scanner and the message read: “Claim at the Lottery.” That typically means a decent prize, and Bock figured he’d won $1,000. When he showed up at Minnesota Lottery headquarters, however, he found it was much more.

The $100,000 was his second big prize this year. In January, he won $20,000 playing a scratch game.

Bock told the lottery that he had randomly chosen the numbers that won Sunday. A St. Cloud store sold the winning ticket.
