Woden man gets second big lottery win in a month

A WODEN man has won more than $200,000 in Monday’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw, coming less than a month after he had won a share in a $1.3 million Saturday Lotto division one win.

His entry also scored two consolation prizes of $1000, taking his total win to $202,000.

The unidentified winner had won a syndicate share worth $147,491.96 in Saturday Lotto, on September 30.

“I’ve been playing for more than 18 years with no luck and now, suddenly, I get two wins in less than a month,” he told an official from The Lott.

He also revealed he had a couple of generous plans in mind for his latest win.

“For my division one syndicate win, I gave it all to my wife,” he said.

“I think with this prize, I’ll put some away for my children’s education. Then I’ll donate some and put the rest towards a holiday for my family.”

The winning entry of 10 consecutive numbers was purchased online

Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot are raffle-style games, which means there is a set number of tickets in each draw. As each ticket number is unique there is no sharing of prizes.
