“I just thank God for blessing me and allowing me to help my family,” said Juarez.

With more than $183 million in total prizes, the 100X The Cash game features overall odds of winning of one in 2.86, including break-even prizes. Five $2.5 million top prizes and eight second-tier prizes worth $100,000 each currently remain unclaimed.

The BC Mart at 300 S. Marsalis in Dallas is eligible for a $10,000 retailer bonus for selling the winning ticket.
