NJ Lottery officials announced that one lucky player purchased a Quick Draw Progressive ticket winning $22,328, 10% of the progressive jackpot, on Friday, June 21.
Quick Draw Progressive tickets are sold at any retailer and offer a fast way for players to see if their ticket is a lucky winner, officials stated.
According to officials, the winning ticket was sold at $.99 Cent Globel, 306 Central Ave., Jersey City in Hudson County.
How does the Quick Draw Progressive Jackpot work?
This rolling jackpot is available to every single player at no additional cost, officials say.
Lottery officials said a set of nine “Your Jackpot Numbers” (01-80) are randomly selected and printed at the bottom of every Quick Draw ticket.
If all nine of the player’s numbers are selected in any of the Quick Draw drawings that the ticket is eligible for, the ticket wins a portion of the Progressive Jackpot based on the amount wagered per draw, authorities say.
Officials stated that a $1 wager per draw ticket wins 10% of the jackpot, a $2 wager per draw ticket wins 20% of the jackpot, and so on.
Any ticket with $10 wager per draw or higher will be eligible to receive 100% of the jackpot, officials said.
