About Lotto Texas

Lotto Texas is the Lone Star State’s lottery which offers big prizes to its participants, with a jackpot that starts at $5 million. Draws take place on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday evenings at 10:12 PM CT. Discover how Lotto Texas was launched, learn how to play, and check out some of the biggest lottery winners in the state.

Lotto Texas Overview

Lotto Texas was launched on November 7, 1992 with ticket sales beginning that same day. A week later, the first draw was held at 9:59 PM and it was televised via satellite across Texas. The first winner of the Lotto Texas jackpot won $21.8 million. The lottery soon became popular, with total sales exceeding $1 billion in the first seven months after start-up.

Until 1993, Lotto Texas players had to select their numbers manually. On May 29, 1993 the “Quick Pick” option was added.

In 2013, the Extra! option was added on Lotto Texas Tickets. For an additional $1 per play, this feature allows players to increase their prize amount if they match three, four or five numbers.

Since its launch, Lotto Texas has been offering big prizes to its players, and you could be one of them too if you enter the next draw.
