Are You Holding The Winning SuperLotto Ticket Sold In Los Angeles?
The big jackpot is still in play for the SuperLotto Plus, but one SoCal winner netted a second-place prize in Wednesday's drawing.
LOS ANGELES — No winning tickets hit all six numbers in Wednesday's SuperLotto Plus drawing, but one lucky player in Los Feliz matched five and nabbed a payout worth more than $15,000. The jackpot for matching all five numbers plus the Mega number was valued at $61 million on Wednesday and is expected to hit $62 million by Saturday's drawing.
The SoCal winner purchased their ticket at a 7-Eleven store on Franklin Avenue for a $15,613 second-place prize. Two others were equally lucky in NorCal, where five numbers matched on tickets sold at a Chevron in Fremont and an Arco AM/PM in Stockton.
The numbers drawn Wednesday night were 3, 7, 8, 22, and 40, with a Mega number of 7. Wednesday marked the 55th drawing since the last time a SuperLotto Plus ticket matched all six numbers for the big jackpot.
