$4,000,000 Gold 50X Makes a Player $4M Richer
On Tuesday, a lottery player in Massachusetts purchased a lottery ticket, unaware that it would change their life forever. While the winner has yet to come forward to claim their winnings, the lottery reported that the $4 million $4,000,000 Gold 50X ticket was sold at the Richdale convenience store in Tewksbury.
In addition to being nothing to sneeze at, the $4 million prize is also notable due to the fact that it was the final top prize in its respective game. For context, $4,000,000 Gold 50X launched in January 2025, with tickets costing $10 apiece. At launch, the game featured three top prizes, all of which have now been claimed. The game also featured seven second-tier prizes of $1 million, all of which were claimed, too.
The odds of winning the top prize were reported to be 1 in 5,376,000. The overall odds of winning any prize, including break-even prizes, were 1 in 4.79.
