CHICAGO (CBS) – An Illinois lottery player won over $700,000 after purchasing an online Fast Play game on Wednesday.

The winner played the "Fast Play Twenty 20s" and won the jackpot of $711,984.

Twenty 20s is a progressive jackpot game that starts at $50,000 and grows with each ticket sold until there's a winner.

Over 37,000 winning tickets have been sold for the Twenty-20s game this month, providing players more than $2.2 million in prizes, lottery officials said.

Last month, a player in Oak Lawn won over $900,000 playing the game just before the clock struck midnight. Another player in Illinois won over $580,000 in January.
