A Gymea man is hoping to knock off early after this afternoon discovering he is now $200,000 richer from winning 1st Prize in today’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.
The southern Sydney worker won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1344, drawn Monday 10 June 2019.
When a NSW Lotteries official broke the life-changing news to the winner this afternoon, he couldn’t contain his shock.
“Whoa! What!? That’s just ridiculous!” he laughed excitedly.
“That is just ridiculous. A mate at work has been playing every draw for ages and he hasn’t won anything.
“I started playing and have been on a bit of a winning streak winning smaller amounts here and there.
“The last entry I won $40 and I told myself ‘that’s it, once that’s gone that streak is over’. But it won me $200,000!”
The winner admitted, while laughing with his workmates, that he had no plans to return to work this afternoon.
“I’m at work at the moment but I don’t think I’ll be working the rest of the afternoon!” he confessed.
“Hopefully I’ll be able to knock off early. I have no idea what I am going to spend it on.
“I will have to give the missus a call and let her know. I doubt she is going to believe me!”
The happy winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his entry of 10 random numbers online at thelott.com.
The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $72.04 million for draw 1347 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $1.67 million for draw 10294.

About Lucky Lotteries
Lucky Lotteries has two products: the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and the Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot.
Both Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot and Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot have thousands of guaranteed prizes in every draw, from free tickets through to a 1st Prize of $100,000 and $200,000 respectively.
In addition to the guaranteed prizes in every draw, Lucky Lotteries is also a jackpotting game. The jackpot in the Lucky Lotteries game is won when the selected jackpot ticket number has already won a cash prize in that same draw. If the selected jackpot ticket hasn’t already won a cash prize in that draw, then the top prize jackpots.
Unlike lotto-style games where the top prize is often shared between winners, Lucky Lotteries is a draw lottery where the jackpot winner takes the lot. This means the jackpot prize can only be won by a unique Lucky Lotteries ticket number.
The sign of Australia’s Official Lotteries, the Lott operates and markets Australia’s leading lottery games customers know and love creating everyday winners, winning every day.
Last calendar year, 74 million winners took home a total of $2.7 billion in prize money from their favourite games which include Saturday Lotto, Monday and Wednesday Lotto, Powerball, Oz Lotto, Set for Life, Lucky Lotteries, Keno and Instant Scratch-Its.
