A lady from the US had an extraordinarily lucky couple of days in February.


Idaho resident Orlene Peterson won $300,000 in the state lottery - and the very next day, snagged a $200,000 prize in the same contest. The odds of winning these amounts on two successive days are estimated at 1 in 282.5 million.
