Baltimore, MD — A single scratch-off ticket worth $2 million led a surge of lottery wins across Maryland, capping a week that saw dozens of high-value prizes claimed and millions paid out to players statewide.
The Maryland Lottery reported that more than $34.1 million in prizes were distributed between April 6 and April 12, with 56 tickets valued at $10,000 or more sold or claimed during that period.
The largest prize came from a 200X the Cash scratch-off ticket sold at Riggs Grocery on Kenilworth Avenue in Riverdale, delivering a $2 million payout.
Other major wins included a $500,000 scratch-off prize from a ticket sold at a Walmart in Severn and a separate $500,000 Powerball Double Play ticket sold in Largo that remained unclaimed as of Sunday.
