Twice the fun for Maryland Lottery players last night, as two big jackpot winners were crowned!
Fourth Multi-Match jackpot winner of 2024
For the Monday, June 3 drawing of Multi-Match, one lucky ticket matched all six numbers drawn to win the $500,000 jackpot. The winning numbers for Monday night's draw were 12, 14, 28, 32, 33, and 42.
The winning ticket was purchased at the Royal Farms, located at 930 Cromwell Park Drive in Glen Burnie. For selling the jackpot-winning ticket, the Anne Arundel County retailer earns a bonus of $1,000.
The winner, who has not been announced yet, can choose between the $500,000 jackpot annuity, paid in 25 equal installments, or an estimated $250,000 cash option (before taxes).
This was the fourth Multi-Match jackpot winner of 2024. The previous winner was for the May 30 drawing, with the jackpot reaching $580,000. That winning ticket was purchased at Wawa #8521, located at 9100 Riggs Road in Prince George's County.
The second winner of the year took home a $660,000 jackpot for the April 29 drawing, with the winning ticket being purchased at St. Paul Mini Mart, located at 815 St. Paul Street in Baltimore City. The first winner of 2024 came on March 25, when a ticket purchased in Belcamp won $2.1 million. An anonymous couple in Aberdeen claimed that jackpot.
Big progressive jackpot winner
The second big jackpot winner of Monday night was from a FAST PLAY progressive jackpot. The jackpot winner was playing the $10 Grand Progressive game, which is the first of 28 progressive jackpots available in Maryland.
The winning ticket was purchased at Walmart, located at 40 Drury Drive in La Plata. The progressive jackpot had climbed to $190,383 before this lucky player won. For selling the winning ticket, the Walmart location will receive a $1,000 bonus from the Maryland Lottery.
The game went on sale on April 1, and the Maryland Lottery states there are still six $50,000 prizes remaining, 48 $10,000 prizes remaining, along with others ranging from $10 up to $1,000.
