How hard is it to hit The Pick jackpot?

The odds of winning the top prize in the Arizona Lottery game are 1 in over 7 million, but now it’s been done twice in under three weeks. On Jan. 18, somebody won a $2 million jackpot.

That came a little over a month after another east Phoenix gas station, the QuikTrip at 48th Street and Baseline Road, sold a ticket that hit a $2.6 million The Pick jackpot on Dec. 11.
