Darien resident Marie Hackett turned $5 into $134,941 after cashing in a winning “Fast Play Money Vault Progressive” ticket on Tuesday, April 5 that was sold at Pressure Discount Tobacco on New Canaan Avenue in Norwalk.
According to CT Lottery, “ Fast Play games play like Instant (Scratch) games but are printed on-demand from a CT Lottery Retailer’s terminal or a CT Lottery Ticket Vending Machine.
“Fast Play Progressive games are a series of games that all share the same name, look, and play style, but are available at different price points (wagers). Each game in a series contributes to one progressive jackpot.
Jackpots begin with a set minimum value. Once the minimum jackpot is funded it grows with each ticket sold statewide until someone wins. The progressive jackpot then resets to the minimum value and grows again. The ticket price (wager) you play determines the percentage of the progressive jackpot you could win
