Written by Published
 A Massachusetts lottery player hit a $281,851 prize on Saturday after playing an online game called “The Lamp.”

The game starts with wagers as low as 50 cents, while players can bet up to $50. It features colorful symbols, including a genie, a golden lamp and a treasure chest. Players win when they land a cluster of three or more matching symbols.

The big online win was part of a busy day for the Massachusetts State Lottery. At least 807 prizes were won or claimed across the state, including six in Springfield, six in Worcester and 28 in Boston.

The Massachusetts State Lottery publishes a daily list of winning tickets worth more than $600, giving players a way to check some of the biggest prizes.

Biggest Massachusetts Lottery Prize of the Year

The state's largest lottery prize claimed so far this year was a staggering $25 million. The winning “$25,000,000 Mega Money” ticket was sold at a Cumberland Farms gas station in Turners Falls, one of the five villages that make up Montague.

Saturday’s $281,851 win is another major payout for a Massachusetts lottery player.
