Maryland's first FAST PLAY 20X Cash winner claims $311,795 jackpot days after launch

A lucky player has won the first FAST PLAY 20X Cash jackpot in Maryland. The winning ticket, sold at a Gaithersburg grocery store, landed a prize of $311,795 on Thursday, September 11, 2025. The game only launched three days earlier, offering players a chance at progressive jackpots starting at $300,000. The Maryland Lottery introduced FAST PLAY 20X Cash on Monday, September 8, 2025. Each $20 ticket gives players the opportunity to win instant prizes from $40 up to $10,000, alongside the growing jackpot. The top prize begins at $300,000 and climbs higher with every ticket purchased.

The winning ticket for the first jackpot was bought at the Giant grocery store on 46 Bureau Drive in Gaithersburg, Montgomery County. The retailer will now receive a $1,000 bonus for selling the winning entry. The jackpot winner has six months to claim their prize. After this win, the jackpot resets to $300,000 and starts building again. At the time of writing, the next estimated FAST PLAY 20X Cash jackpot stands at $310,335. There are still 19 more jackpots available in the current game cycle.

The first FAST PLAY 20X Cash winner took home $311,795, just days after the game's launch. With 19 jackpots remaining, players can still try their luck for the next top prize. The Maryland Lottery continues to offer instant wins alongside the progressive jackpot.
