There are also several smaller rewards available, including four $2 million prizes, 12 $1 million prizes and 10 Second Chance Drawings where players can enter non-winning tickets for the chance to win cash prizes ranging from $100-$50,000.
According to the Massachusetts State Lottery Commission, the game's 82% overall prize payout ties the record for highest payout rate of any instant ticket in Massachusetts Lottery history — a record that was broken with the release of the state's first $50 instant ticket, "Billion Dollar Extravaganza," in February 2023.
"Billion Dollar Extravaganza," offered three instant rewards of $25 million, the largest instant prize the Massachusetts Lottery has ever awarded.
“We released our first $50 lottery ticket last year and it quickly became the best-selling ticket in the country,” Deborah Goldberg, Massachusetts state treasurer and chair of the Massachusetts State Lottery Commission, said in a statement. “With the grand prize of a million dollars a year for life, this new $50 ticket gives players what they have been requesting, another chance to win big.”
