CT Lottery Roundup: The Latest Big Winners From Across The State

CONNECTICUT — Here are the latest winners of $10,000 or more in assorted CT Lottery games and where the lucky tickets were acquired.

As of Oct. 1, 2025, the CT Lottery no longer publishes winners' names without their written consent in accordance with Sec. 3(d) of Public Act 25-112.

The CT Lottery's policy on announcing winners is designed to "protect" them from potential scams.

For years, the CT Lottery policy had been to show the full names of all those who cashed in tickets worth $10,000 or more as a matter of public record. It then went to winners having the option of applying for anonymity. Then, the CT Lottery included just first names and last initials while keeping the anonymity option available.

Now, it's complete anonymity unless there is consent.
