TRENTON, NJ — A single ticket sold at a convenience store in Ocean County has won the $32 million Pick-6 jackpot, the New Jersey Lottery confirmed Tuesday, making it the first major jackpot win of 2025.

Lottery officials urge residents to check their tickets as it has not yet been confirmed that a winner has come forward as of Tuesday morning.

The winning ticket was purchased at Quick Mart on Bennetts Mills Road in Jackson. The store will receive a $10,000 retailer bonus for selling the ticket, lottery officials said.

The winning numbers drawn on Monday were 04, 11, 12, 15, 27, and 39. Following the jackpot win, the prize pool for the next drawing on Thursday will reset to $2 million.

Players who opted for the Double Play feature had a second chance to win with the numbers 11, 17, 18, 31, 37, and 41 during the same drawing. The Double Play option allows participants to win additional prizes for an extra dollar.

Pick-6 Lotto, introduced in 1980, remains one of New Jersey’s most enduring lottery games. The game’s highest jackpot of $48.9 million was won in 2001, while updates in recent years have added new features like XTRA and Double Play to enhance player opportunities.
