In Hartford County, a New Britain resident won $825,000 playing "$1,000,000 Golden Riches" on a scratch-off ticket sold in New Haven County at the BP gas station on Washington Avenue in North Haven.

The winner chose not to disclose a name.

CT Lottery said that the overall odds of winning on a "$1,000,000 Golden Riches" ticket is 1 in 2.98.

According to CT Lottery, “when a winning scratch ticket is validated through a Lottery Retailer's terminal, the remaining number of unclaimed prizes for that prize level is automatically updated reflecting one less prize. Until the individual or group presents their winning ticket for claim at CT Lottery Headquarters, the identity of a winner is unknown.”

That wasn't the only lucky lotto player. Other recent winners of prizes reaching five digits, according to CT Lotto include:
