A Florida lottery player is holding a winning ticket — but might not know it yet.

The player bought a Jackpot Triple Play ticket that matched all the numbers picked in the June 27 drawing, making it worth $275,000, results show.

The winning numbers: 3-9-23-29-36-42.

The winner hit the jackpot at a Publix grocery store. The lucky ticket came from the supermarket at 26841 S. Tamiami Trail in Bonita Springs, a roughly 150-mile drive south from Tampa, the Florida Lottery wrote on its website and in a news release.

Jackpot Triple Play is a drawing game that offers tickets starting at $1. The lucky player chose the Quick Pick option, meaning a lottery machine chose at least some of their ticket numbers at random, rules show.

As of early June 30, no one had claimed the jackpot prize. In Florida, the winners of drawing games have about six months to cash in, according to lottery officials.

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.
