I don't know if it is hubris, but the investigation only started because no one claimed the 16 millions jackpot. He could probably have keep winning smaller sums forever.

And he seriously bought the ticket himself, that's amateur level incompetence.

I think having hundreds of people buy the tickets would have upped the complexity too much. He didn't deterministically have the exact number. He was playing hundreds of tickets per win still.
