An American sues a lottery after believing he won $340 million. The unfortunate player claims that the numbers he selected in Powerball were designated as winners on the game's website.

John Cheeks bought a ticket to the famous American Powerball lottery on January 6, 2023, choosing among its numbers the dates of birth of members of his family. The live draw took place the next day, but the player did not consult the results immediately, not imagining winning. It was only the following day that he searched for them on his computer, then having the pleasant surprise of discovering that his numbers were winning.
