A Houston resident claimed a $5 million top prize on the Texas Lottery's $5 Million Titanium Black scratch ticket, the Texas Lottery said Wednesday.
The ticket was bought at Super K, 5860 San Felipe Street in Houston, and the winner chose to stay anonymous. It was the second of the game's four $5 million prizes to be claimed.
Titanium Black costs $100, and the front of the ticket says prizes start at $150. The game has odds of 1 in 3.89 and the lottery says the game holds more than $448.6 million in prizes. In about 5.6 million tickets, that comes to 80.0% of sales.
| Prize | Total | Left |
|---|---|---|
| $5,000,000 | 4 | 2 |
| $50,000 | 21 | 14 |
| $2,500 | 2,825 | 1,774 |
| $1,000 | 37,116 | 23,249 |
| $500 | 374,050 | 229,141 |
| $300 | 187,035 | 114,799 |
| $200 | 280,463 | 173,317 |
| $150 | 561,184 | 346,867 |
The catch is how the winners split. Of about 1.44 million winning tickets, 39% pay the minimum $150 and only about 40,000 pay $1,000 or more. Each $5 million prize is about 1 in 1.4 million tickets. The game went on sale February 2, and about 38% of its tickets have sold. It rates 74.5 on our ValueScore™, third among the four $100 games Texas sells, behind Premier Winnings at 94.8 and Loteria Supreme at 78.4. Texas has no state income tax, so only federal tax applies to the prize.
Super K may get a $10,000 bonus. The Texas Lottery's Retailer Bonus Program pays $10,000 for selling a scratch prize of $500,000 or more and $5,000 for one from $250,000 to $499,999. The program has a $2.01 million budget for September 2026 through August 2027 and can be suspended if it runs out, which is why the lottery says the store “may be eligible.” Few US lotteries sell $100 tickets, and our look at the most expensive scratch-offs compares them.
