One lucky Michigan Lottery player from Ontonagon, who remains anonymous, recently struck gold while playing 20X Cashword. The player purchased that game at a Holiday store and won $1 million.

How to Play
When playing this game, it is important that you read all of the rules and make sure to play the entire ticket. There are a few simple steps to follow.
First, on page 1, players will have to scratch off the page 1 call letters. By doing this, you will reveal 20 letters.
Once you have removed the scratch-off material, you can then look to match up words to see if you won anything. The prizes will be according to what words you have matched.
Depending on how many words you have and if any bonuses are involved, the prizes will fluctuate. There are also some bonuses to watch out for.
Below the main part of the ticket, you will notice a Bonus 1 and 2 section. If you happen to match all six letters in the bonus word box, then you will win the prize that is shown for that box.
Odds, Price, and Prizes
The overall odds of winning a single prize are 1 in 3.28. In order to increase these odds, the best thing to do is to buy another ticket.
If you purchase more than one ticket or more than you have originally planned, then it would not hurt to look at your budget. This way, you know exactly how much you can afford to buy in tickets, especially at $20 per ticket.
