If you purchased a Lucky Day Lotto ticket Monday, you might want to check your numbers—you could be the state’s newest half-millionaire.

The winning ticket was purchased online and matched all five numbers in the Monday, July 27 midday drawing to score the game’s $500,000 jackpot—plus an additional $1 for matching 2 out of 5 numbers on another line. The winning numbers were 18-22-28-29-32.

Already this year, nearly seven million winning Lucky Day Lotto tickets have been sold, with players statewide claiming more than $40 million in prizes.

The winner has one year from the draw date to claim their prize.
