CT Lottery Player Hits Jackpot 5 Times in 1 Night For $125K In Winnings

A Connecticut lottery player struck gold five times during a Play4 night drawing earlier this week, winning $125,000 all with the exact same numbers. The Connecticut State Lottery announced that this historic feat marks the largest win ever recorded on the state’s new iLottery platform.

The winner, who purchased the tickets through iLottery, chose the combination 0-8-1-5 in the Play4 drawing. It was his wife’s birthday. Each ticket brought in $25,000, making his unique approach to the lottery a lucrative decision. 

The winner was not named.  

Play4’s odds vary depending on the wager style, but this victory demonstrates the life-changing potential of a well-chosen set of digits.

In a separate lucky streak, a Madison resident claimed $390,000 after winning the December 4 Lucky for Life drawing. The winning ticket was sold at the Big Y grocery store at 830 Boston Post Road in Guilford. They opted to take the lump-sum payment rather than the annuity. 

The Big Y that sold the ticket will win a $2,500 bonus.
