Port Lavaca resident claims $1 million prize from Texas Lottery scratch ticket Power 20s game
Port Lavaca, Texas – A Port Lavaca resident has claimed a life-changing prize after winning $1 million in a Texas Lottery scratch ticket game, marking one of the top prizes available in the popular Power 20s game. The winning ticket was purchased at a local convenience store, bringing excitement not only to the winner but also to the retailer that sold the ticket.
According to lottery officials, the winning ticket was sold at 7-Eleven 36505H, located at 1800 State Highway 35 S., Suite A, in Port Lavaca. The individual who claimed the prize has chosen to remain anonymous, a common option for major lottery winners seeking privacy after such a significant win.
The $1 million prize represents one of the top awards in the Power 20s scratch ticket game. Officials confirmed that this is the first of four top prizes at that level to be claimed, meaning there are still additional high-value prizes remaining in circulation for other players.
Retailer bonus and game details draw attention
The retailer that sold the winning ticket may also benefit from the win. Under the Texas Lottery’s Retailer Bonus Program, the store could be eligible to receive a $10,000 bonus for selling the top prize ticket. This incentive program is designed to reward retailers who play a role in distributing winning tickets and contributing to the excitement of the lottery.
The Power 20s game itself offers more than $91.7 million in total prizes, making it one of the more attractive scratch ticket options for players across Texas. While the chance of winning a top prize is limited, the overall odds of winning any prize in the game stand at one in 3.61, which includes smaller break-even wins.
Lottery officials often remind players that while big wins capture attention, most prizes are smaller, and participation should be approached responsibly. Still, stories like this continue to draw interest, as a single ticket can instantly change someone’s financial future.
For now, one Port Lavaca resident is celebrating a major milestone, while others may be inspired to try their luck as more top prizes remain unclaimed in the game.
