Maryland Angler Catches $50,000 Monopoly X50 Lottery Jackpot on Fishing Line
In an unexpected turn of events, a Dundalk resident has become the latest winner in the MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off game run by the Maryland Lottery. The fortunate man, an avid fisherman, purchased his winning $10 ticket at Quick Mart 11 on 7801 Wise Avenue in Dundalk.
The latest win from the MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off game is a tier-two prize of $50,000. The winner initially thought the prize was significantly smaller, expecting $10 or $500, but was surprised to find a $1,000 win with a 50X multiplier.
The MONOPOLY series, licensed by Scientific Games and distributed by the Maryland Lottery, has been experiencing a winning streak recently. In fact, out of a total of 10 top prizes of $100,000 each, eight remain in play for the MONOPOLY X50 game.
The Maryland Lottery confirmed the win, and the lucky man admitted in an interview with a Lottery official that he was not expecting such a large amount of money. The odds of winning any prize in the MONOPOLY X50 game are 1 in 3.29.
The fan-favorite MONOPOLY scratch-off ticket was the cause of the win. The game offers a chance to win between $10 and the top prize of $100,000. Prior to the latest win, a couple won $1m from the MONOPOLY X100 scratch-off ticket, and before that, a Baltimore County player scored the first $50K top prize from MONOPOLY X20.
However, no public data has been found on how many $50,000 tier-two prizes remain unclaimed in the MONOPOLY X50 game. For an accurate and up-to-date count, you would need to check directly with the Maryland Lottery's official resources or contact their customer service, as the Maryland Lottery website does not appear to publicly disclose current prize availability details for specific prize tiers.
The winner chose to remain anonymous, but the excitement in Dundalk is palpable. The winning ticket was purchased earlier this week, adding another success story to the MONOPOLY X50 game. With nine more tier-two prizes of $50,000 still in play, who knows who the next lucky winner might be?
In light of the unexpected win, the Dundalk resident has found himself with a newfound wealth-management challenge, as he navigates the decisions surrounding his $50,000 tier-two prize from the MONOPOLY X50 scratch-off game. As more people learn of the winning streak, personal-finance advice may increasingly become valuable for those playing the game, with nine more $50,000 prizes still up for grabs.
