The winning ticket matched all six numbers — 9, 10, 19, 20, 35 and 40 — drawn Tuesday night for the estimated $875,000 jackpot.
According to the Florida Lottery, the ticket was sold at the Boca Shell located at 5899 North Federal Highway. The winner opted for the base game payout rather than the full jackpot amount.
Only one ticket matched all six numbers in the June 4 drawing, and it was sold with the “Combo” option, which boosts second-tier prizes to a maximum of $250,000.
As of Wednesday afternoon, the winner had not yet claimed the prize. Florida Lottery winners have 180 days from the date of the drawing to collect their earnings.
Jackpot Triple Play tickets cost $1 and give players three sets of numbers. Drawings are held every Tuesday and Friday.
The odds of matching all six numbers and winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 3.5 million.
