A Texas resident is now a millionaire after securing a top-prize-winning scratch-off ticket. The player secured the life-changing ticket at a local H-E-B, according to a Wednesday, October 28, release from the Texas Lottery.<\/p>\n

The beloved grocery company sold it to a San Antonio native, unknowingly bestowing a $1 million award on them. The patron won the game Casino Millions<\/a>, which costs $50 to play.<\/p>\n

Texas Lottery officials say the customer bought the ticket from the H-E-B at 9255 Grissom Road. The store is near the Culebra Creek Trail and serves neighbors in Creekside and Misty Oaks.<\/p>\n

The lucky patron claimed their earnings on Friday, October 9, according to the Texas Lottery’s website. They have requested that their identity remain anonymous.<\/p>\n

It was the third of four top prizes worth $1 million that can be claimed in the game. Texas Lottery officials report that Casino Millions offers more than $195.3 million in total prizes, though the overall odds of winning anything are one in 3.45.<\/p>\n

For selling the ticket, H-E-B also has an opportunity to earn some cash. The Texas Lottery’s retailer program awards some retailers a $10,000 bonus for selling select winning cards.<\/p>\n

Drawings for Mega Millions are held every Friday and Tuesday at 10:12 p.m. The Texas Two Step drawing is held every Monday and Thursday at 10:12 p.m.<\/p>\n

Cash Five drawings are scheduled every Monday and Saturday at 10:12 p.m. Meanwhile, Pick 3, the Daily 4, and All or Nothing occur Monday through Saturday at 10 a.m., 12:27 p.m., 6 p.m., and 10:12 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Texas resident is now a millionaire after securing a top-prize-winning scratch-off ticket.
