Broward County man claims top prize in $2,000,000 24 KARAT CASH Scratch-Off game

Posted on May 4, 2018

The Florida Lottery announces that Renford Lewis, 55, of Lauderdale Lakes, claimed a $2 million top prize in the $2,000,000 24 KARAT CASH Scratch-Off game at Florida Lottery Headquarters in Tallahassee. He chose to receive his winnings as a one-time, lump-sum payment of $1,600,000.00.

A frequent Lottery player, Lewis said he plans to use his winnings to help his siblings, his seven children and his nieces and nephews.

He purchased his winning ticket from Sunshine, located at 1601 North State Road 7 in Lauderhill. The retailer will receive a $4,000 bonus commission for selling the winning Scratch-Off ticket.

24 KARAT CASH offers four top prizes of $2 million! This $10 game also features more than 152,500 prizes from $100 to $10,000. The game’s overall odds of winning are one-in-3.57.

Scratch-Offs are an important part of the Lottery’s portfolio of games, generating more than $784 million for the Educational Enhancement Trust Fund (EETF) in FY 2016-17, and comprising approximately 68 percent of ticket sales.
