The headline gave me the misimpression that he had won the lottery on six different occasions, which would have put him in a class with Gladstone Gander, >

I think you forgot, >

-He played the lottery, like he had been doing for over 20 years.-

Why would he use the same numbers on each ticket? Isnt he just splitting the pot with himself? >

What I want to know is the annual winnings part

As luck would have it, Raymond Roberts won on all six tickets, earning a lump sum of nearly $2m (£1.6m), plus 20 annual payments of $25,000. 

Does that mean he has 20 years of 25,000 a year, or 20 Individual payments of 25,000 each year? If it’s the latter then the man is making half a mil each year before taxes, that’s insane considering the odds of it is 1,813,028 to one, I mean the odds for 20 of them must be in the quadrillions >

Intuition does not care about odds. >

What stories like this fail to mention is that for the other 20 years he's been playing the lottery he used intuition as well.  
Don't get me wrong I am glad pure blind random chance worked in his favor. >

How else does one win the lottery? It's always "I have a hunch these are the random numbers that will win." Nobody ever has a more valid reason for why they choose particular numbers. >

I would have to think there have been some random pick winners >

Oh yeah? Well if he's so intuitive, why hasn't he won the... oh, wait... >

This is more a wonder of math and probability than his intuition. Not saying intuition doesnt matter but when it comes to predicted outcomes, planned in advance, without him having that knowledge, im more impressed by the probability of that. >
