$2.4 million Jackpot ticket for The Pick sold at Tempe gas station

PHOENIX — Another big jackpot ticket was sold in Arizona, this time at a gas station in Tempe.

A $2.4 million top prize ticket for The Pick game was sold at the QuikTrip at Southern Avenue and Price Avenue for Saturday’s drawing.

It matched the six winning numbers of 8-12-19-23-34-44.

The odds of hitting The Pick jackpot are 1 in 7,059,052, according to the Arizona Lottery.

The Arizona Lottery offers two jackpot payoff options: an annuity that pays out the full value over 30 years or a cash lump sum of about half the value.

The Pick drawings are held every Monday, Wednesday and Saturday. The jackpot resets to $1 million after each win and grows over time.

The game costs $1 per entry, and the odds of hitting the jackpot are 1 in 7,059,052. The Pick also pays out $2,000 for matching five numbers, $50 for four numbers and $3 for three numbers.

Winners have 180 days from the date of the drawing to claim their prizes.
