Texas Lottery Chronicles- Red Diamond 7's

"Red Diamond 7's is the sixth scratch-off lottery ticket in our series. Our last one produced a $10 winner, so here's hoping we can keep the streak alive!

Red Diamond has a top prize of $100,000. Odds are 3.7-1 against a winner and that includes $5 wins, which is just break-even.


The object of the game is to match your black numbers with the black "winning" numbers or the red numbers with the red "winning" numbers. The red match is better because it double the prize. Should a Red Diamond symbol appear you win all 15 prizes!

Yeah, that'll happen.

Let's scratch off the "winning" numbers and the top row of our numbers and see if we hit anything.


Although we had two shots at the top prize, we whiffed on both.

On to the second line.


Smaller prizes were and still no matches. Disappointing.

Looks like our last line is our only hope. Let's take a look.


Line three is also a whiff, so it looks like our winning streak is over at 1. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

Maybe next time :)

  1. I have to admit that it is kind of fun reading these posts, especially knowing that it is not my money going into coffers of the great state of Texas.
