MADISON, Wis. -- A double-lottery-winning couple in Dane County doubled their winnings again. Verlyn and Judith Adamson of Mount Horeb each claimed a $350,000 jackpot this week for having the winning numbers in the state SuperCash drawing last Saturday. But they didn't mention at the time that they also held two more of the winning tickets. They claimed two more $350,000 jackpots Thursday. All four were purchased at different locations, but with the same numbers and for the same drawing. The total winnings increased to $1.4 million, or about $955,000 after taxes. The Adamsons left a voice message on their phone saying they wouldn't have any public comment and referring any questions to their lawyer Scott Thompson. Verlyn Adamson, an accountant, said earlier in the week that he's a big fan of math puzzles. He claims he developed a formula for lottery picks, but his winnings have been small until now. Thompson said the Adamsons are "exploring patent protection" for the equation. But Steven Post, a mathematics professor at Edgewood College in Madison, said there is no way to devise a strategy for finding the winning numbers in a game that uses randomly generated numbers to determine the winning combination. The only proven strategy would be to "buy all the tickets," he said. http://www.wnbc.com/money/17263616/detail.html
