A Fantasy 5 player snagged a six-figure jackpot in Florida, officials say.

The player won $127,362.57 after matching all five numbers in the evening drawing on Saturday, Nov. 16, according to the Florida Lottery.

The winning ticket was purchased from a Gas Food & Go store on Silver Star Road in Orlando, officials said.

The winning numbers were 1-7-11-26-32, results show. There were no jackpot winners in the midday drawing.

The lucky player beat odds of 1 in 376,992 to win the game’s top prize, according to the Lottery.

Winners have 180 days from the draw date to claim their prize, and players are encouraged to sign their tickets, the Florida Lottery said.

Many people can gamble or play games of chance without harm. However, for some, gambling is an addiction that can ruin lives and families.

If you or a loved one shows signs of gambling addiction, you can seek help by calling the national gambling hotline at 1-800-522-4700 or visiting the National Council on Problem Gambling website.
