Houston Resident Claims $1 Million Casino Millions Prize
The winning Texas Lottery scratch ticket was sold at a Houston convenience store, and the claimant has chosen to remain anonymous.
Updated on Nov. 10, 2026 in Gambling
A Houston resident claimed a $1 million top prize in the Texas Lottery's Casino Millions scratch ticket game. The winning ticket was purchased at Charge Up 132 at 9705 Synott Road in Houston, and the claimant elected to remain anonymous.
Why it matters
The prize is the fourth of 10 top prizes worth $1 million in the game, meaning six remain unclaimed. Lottery officials report the wins as part of a run of large scratch-off payouts for Texas players.
Overall odds of winning any prize in the Casino Millions game are one in 3.45, including break-even prizes. Four of the game's 10 $1 million top prizes have been claimed so far, leaving six still unclaimed.

Legal Context
Texas Lottery scratch tickets such as Casino Millions publish a fixed number of top prizes, so each claimed $1 million prize reduces the remaining pool. The lottery's odds of one in 3.45 for any prize, including break-even prizes, reflect how such games are structured.
Houston-area players can check remaining prize availability for Casino Millions before buying, since six of its ten $1 million top prizes are still unclaimed. The $529 million Mega Millions grand prize, with a $224 million cash option, is also available to players in Texas.
The takeaway
Scratch-off prizes are fixed in number, so odds shift as top prizes are claimed. Players who gamble should set a budget in advance and treat any purchase as an expense rather than income.
