Arlington Resident Wins $1M Texas Lottery Scratch-Off Prize

An Arlington resident won the first of six $1 million top prizes in the Texas Lottery scratch ticket game $1,000,000 Crossword by purchasing a $20 ticket at a QuickTrip store on FM 663 in Midlothian. The game offers over $229 million in total prizes with overall odds of winning any prize being 1 in 3.41, and the odds of winning the top prize are about 1 in 2.5 million. Players win by scratching off mystery letters and matching bonus words to reveal prizes ranging from $20 up to $1 million. Five top prizes remain in circulation, along with numerous smaller prizes, and the game will end once all top prizes are claimed or for business reasons. The winner chose to remain anonymous. Resources for gambling addiction help are available via the National Council on Problem Gambling and online support forums.
