A Hillston man has gone from chilly to cheerful after discovering he’d scored $100,000 in today’s Lucky Lotteries draw, bringing a warm surprise to his week.
The Riverina resident held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 11005, drawn Tuesday 17 June 2025. He looks forward to a tidy $100,000.
“Wait a minute. You’re calling me from The Lott?!” the winning man excitedly questioned.
“You’re not pulling my leg, are you?
“Wow! One hundred thousand dollars?! That’s incredible.
“I had no clue this is what you were calling me about.
“It’s been a cold and miserable day, and this news is just great.
“I’m the happiest person right now! This memory will stay with me forever.
“I’m going to kick back and relax for the rest of the day.”
With a $100,000 boost heading his way, the cheery man wasted no time planning how he’d put his prize to good use.
“I’ll buy a new car,” he said.
“I’ve been wanting to upgrade mine for a while now. This takes all the hassle out of it.”
His winning entry of 10 consecutive numbers was purchased via The Lott app – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.

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.
Each game has two draws – one that determines the winning numbers and one that determines the jackpot number. If the jackpot number matches one of the winning numbers, then the Jackpot Prize is won. If the jackpot number does not match one of the winning numbers, the Jackpot Prize will climb for the next draw.
Tickets can be purchased at any licenced lottery outlet, online from thelott.com or via The Lott mobile app.
