Typically, these narratives revolve around a brief visit to the gas station, but the most recent Michigan Lottery winner emerged from a series of rapid keystrokes.

The lottery officials are currently in search of the fortunate individual who bought a Lotto 47 ticket via the online lottery platform and emerged as the winner of the $1.2 million jackpot in Wednesday’s draw.

The winning numbers 05-06-11-36-40-47 were matched by a single ticket. The winner is advised to contact the Michigan Lottery on 517-373-1237 in order to schedule an appointment to claim their prize.

An online player has won the Lotto 47 jackpot for the second time. Previously, in December, a player from Wayne County bought a winning $2.5 million Lotto 47 jackpot ticket online.

From long Lotto 47 drought to two jackpot wins

It’s quite amusing how these situations can unfold in long-shot competitions. The Lotto 47 jackpot, which requires a $1 ticket purchase, had been without a winner since January until a player from Roscommon County won a whopping $18.41 million just three weeks ago.

Less than three weeks later, the jackpot has been won once again. Just for reference, the chances of winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 10.7 million. Therefore, achieving two wins in a month is undoubtedly deserving of a closer look.

As per the Michigan Lottery database, it is worth mentioning that the state has already produced more than thirty-six millionaires in 2021.

Lotto 47 drawings held Wednesdays, Saturdays

You can purchase Lotto 47 tickets for $1 each. By adding an extra $1, you can opt for Double Play, which offers players another opportunity to win up to $1.5 million in the nightly Double Play drawing.

By paying an extra dollar per game, players have the opportunity to include EZMatch on their ticket, giving them a shot at instantly winning up to $500.
