Lotto Texas
Lotto Texas plays twice a week on Wednesday and Saturday and requires players to match six numbers from a possible 54 in order to win the jackpot, which starts at $4 million. In addition to the jackpot, there are three other prize tiers offering cash prizes for players who match fewer numbers.
Lotto Texas players also have the option to add XTRA to their game for a small additional stake. This pays increased prizes to non-jackpot prize winners and also offers a prize to players matching just two numbers.

Lotto Texas History
The first Lotto Texas draw was held in November 1992 with a six from 50 matrix. The first jackpot, worth $21.8 million, was won two weeks later by a single player. Initially, jackpot winnings could be claimed only as an annuity but in February 1997 a cash lump-sum option was introduced as an alternative to the annuity.
In July 2000 the matrix was changed to require players to match six numbers out of 54. In May 2003 the lotto game was revamped and the matrix was changed for the second time. Players were now required to match five numbers from a pool of 44, plus one additional Bonus number from a second pool of 44.
A single ticket holder from El Paso claimed the largest jackpot in Lotto Texas history on 19th June 2004, winning $145 million.
In April 2006 the game reverted to its previous single matrix of six from 54 and has remained the same ever since. In April 2013 the XTRA game was introduced, offering players the chance to increase their prizes for matching three, four or five numbers by playing Lotto Texas With XTRA for a small additional stake.
