New Jersey lottery player hits $81K jackpot on Quick Draw ticket bought in Union City
Trenton, NJ – A lucky lottery player in Hudson County walked away with $81,112 after hitting 10% of the Quick Draw Progressive jackpot on Sunday, scoring big with a ticket sold at a local Union City convenience store.
The winning ticket was purchased at 48 Tobacco Store, located at 4801 Bergenline Avenue. The payout represents a 10% slice of the current jackpot, which has swelled to more than $730,000.
The player matched all nine “Your Jackpot Numbers” on their Quick Draw ticket, a rare occurrence that triggers a payout based on the wager amount. In this case, a $1 per draw ticket qualified the winner for a tenth of the growing prize pool.
The Quick Draw Progressive game allows players to win instantly, with tickets available at authorized retailers across the state. The jackpot continues to rise until a player matches all nine of their randomly selected numbers in a drawing.
A $1 wager gets 10% of the jackpot, while higher wagers increase the winning share, with a $10 bet claiming the full prize. The draw-based game has grown in popularity across New Jersey for its fast-paced format and rolling jackpots.
