Henry Cantu of Corpus Christi, Texas had always dreamed of building his own house. Now he can! Henry won $600,000 in Texas Two Step from Texas Lottery Commission in January of 2009.
Henry saw on a billboard that somebody had won the jackpot. So, he asked a friend to get him the print-out of the numbers. He checked his ticket and that's where he found out that he won! Prior to the big win, He had been playing the game for three years.
In Texas Two Step, players must choose four numbers from 1-to-35 and must also choose a bonus ball from 1-to-35. The odds of winning the jackpot are slightly more than 1 in 1.8 million. There are smaller prizes as well, including $5 for matching just the bonus ball.
