Denise Antunes, a resident of New Haven, Connecticut, won $15,416 from a "PLAY4 NIGHT" game after purchasing a winning lottery ticket from Big Y World Class Market #117 in Derby, according to the Connecticut Lottery.

The winning ticket was purchased on Monday, though it is unclear if Antunes has claimed her prize yet.

The Connecticut Lottery only publishes the names of winners who win $10,000 or more, which officials claim is quite common. The lottery furnishes winner information as public record, but names of smaller prize winners are kept confidential.

The PLAY4 NIGHT game is one of several games offered by the Connecticut Lottery, with drawings taking place twice a day. The lottery contributes a significant amount of funds to support various state programs and services, with over $10 billion raised for these initiatives since its establishment in 1971.

Lottery tickets can be purchased at various authorized retailers throughout the state, including convenience stores, supermarkets, and gas stations.
