One lucky New Jersey Lottery player hit it big Saturday night, matching all six numbers to win the $22 million Pick-6 jackpot while playing through the Jackpocket app.
The winning numbers were 06, 07, 13, 15, 36, and 45. Lottery officials said the player chose the cash option, taking home $10,403,880 before taxes.
This marks the game’s second-largest jackpot of 2025. Earlier this year, Pick-6 winners included:
• January 20: $32 million, Quick Mart, Jackson (Ocean County)
• March 20: $5.5 million, Clark Cardsmart, Clark (Union County)
• May 22: $5.9 million, Eisenhower Exxon, Roseland (Essex County)
“Congratulations to the winner,” said New Jersey Lottery Executive Director James Carey. “It’s exciting to see jackpots get so high, and I’m looking forward to meeting the winner!”
With the prize claimed, the jackpot has now reset to its $2 million base heading into Monday’s drawing.
The Lottery also launched its “The Jackpot Was Hit!” promotion, running through November 1.
Players who purchase three plays on a single ticket will receive a free play on a separate ticket.
