Montgomery County player hits $242K jackpot on PA Lottery online game
Middletown, PA – A Montgomery County resident struck it big with a massive $242,828.48 win while playing the Pennsylvania Lottery’s online game PA Big Money Wheel, the agency announced on Monday.
The six-figure prize was awarded during recent gameplay of the key number match-style game, which allows users to multiply their winnings and potentially unlock the Big Keystone Jackpot bonus round. The jackpot itself, which starts at $25,000, is shared among three different games in the series.
The winning moment came through the state’s digital lottery platform, which lets users play from their computers, tablets, or smartphones. PA Big Money Wheel is among dozens of interactive online games available at palottery.com, and is known for its fast-paced play and bonus features.
The Pennsylvania Lottery confirmed the winning amount but did not release the identity of the winner, who is from Montgomery County. Lottery officials routinely keep winners’ identities confidential unless permission is given.
In addition to online instant games, the platform allows players to buy tickets for major draw games such as Powerball, Mega Millions, and Cash4Life, as well as the state’s own PICK games and Match 6 Lotto. Users can also subscribe to their favorite draw games through the lottery’s app or website.
This latest win adds to the growing number of big prizes claimed through the online platform, which continues to see increased participation since launching in 2018.
