According to Susan Goedde, a spokesperson for the Missouri Lottery, a single ticket sold in the state matched the six winning numbers drawn on Saturday to win the $7.6 lotto jackpot. Up to this moment, none has come forward to claim the prize. The winning numbers were 6-12-18-29-37-44.

Goedde explained that the winner can choose between the lump-sum payment of $4.6 million, or almost $3.3 million after taxes, or annual payments over 25 years at $304,000 per year, or $215,840 after taxes.

“The best advice would be to sign the back of the ticket and put it in a safe place, until they can take the ticket to the nearest Missouri Lottery office, which is in Springfield,” Goedde said. “They have 180 days to claim it.”

The ticket was purchased at a store on Fir Road on the outskirts of Carl Junction in Joplin.
