A spokesman for the California Lottery said George Van-Derre, 63, of Santa Clara stands to collect more than $200,000 on two of the 11 most valuable tickets from last week’s “Lotto 6/49” game. Although there was no $4-million jackpot winner in the six-of-six category, Lottery spokesman John Schade said 11 tickets hit on five-of-six numbers plus the bonus number. Each of those tickets is worth $102,533--and Van-Derre has two of them. Schade said Van-Derre bought three tickets at the Oriental Gardens liquor store in Santa Clara last week.
