Dec. 5 (UPI) -- A Michigan woman who had been "pretty lucky" playing lottery games recently saw her winning streak culminate with a $1.54 million progressive jackpot.

The 53-year-old Genesee County woman told Michigan Lottery officials she had already had some recent lottery luck when she bought her Jackpot Slots Fast Cash ticket from the Beacon & Bridge Market on West Thompson Road in Fenton.

"Jackpot Slots is my favorite Fast Cash game, and I play it regularly," the player said. "I looked the ticket over right after I bought it and saw I'd won, but I had to scan it on the lottery app to be sure I was seeing things right. When the winning amount of $1.54 million came up on the screen, I immediately called my husband to tell him the good news!"

The woman said she is a frequent lottery player -- and, lately, a frequent winner.

"I have been pretty lucky playing Fast Cash and Club Keno lately, so winning this jackpot prize is the icing on the cake," she said.

The winner said her prize money will go toward buying a new car and investing.
