Match 6 Lotto Jackpot-Winning Ticket Worth Nearly $2.3 Million Sold in Montgomery County 

Middletown – One jackpot-winning Match 6 Lotto ticket worth nearly $2.3 million from the April 19 drawing was sold at Sunoco, 290 S. Gulph Road, King of Prussia, Montgomery County. 

The ticket correctly matched all six winning numbers, 03-11-25-37-46-49, to win a jackpot of $2,268,126.50, less federal withholding. 

The retailer will receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the jackpot-winning ticket. 

The jackpot had been growing since one ticket matched all six winning numbers in the Feb. 13 drawing. Including the jackpot winner, there were 102,286 total winning plays from Thursday evening’s Match 6 drawing. 

Lottery officials cannot confirm the identity of the jackpot winner until the prize is claimed and the ticket is validated. Match 6 winners have one year from the drawing date to claim prizes. 

The Lottery encourages the holder of the winning ticket to sign the back of the ticket, call the Lottery at 717-702-8146 and file a claim at Lottery headquarters in Middletown, Dauphin County, or at any of Lottery’s seven area offices. 

Claims may be filed at Lottery headquarters Monday through Friday, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., and from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at area offices. 

In the 2010-11 fiscal year, in addition to awarding more than $97.1 million in prizes to Montgomery County winners, the Pennsylvania Lottery contributed more than $51 million to programs serving Montgomery County older residents.

How to Play Match 6 Lotto: Match 6 tickets cost $2 each. Players can choose six numbers from 1 to 49 or have numbers randomly selected by computer. The computer will then randomly select an additional two sets of six numbers, for three lines of six numbers each or 18 numbers total. Players can win up to four times on each ticket – once on each of three lines (base play) and by combining all 18 numbers (combined play). 

Match 6 Lotto drawings are held on Monday and Thursday evenings.
