A Mount Evelyn man was left questioning reality and in sheer disbelief after discovering his second-ever Lucky Lotteries ticket delivered him a sweet $100,000 win.
The Yarra Ranges resident held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10987, drawn Monday 26 May 2025. He looks forward to a neat $100,000.
When an official from The Lott broke the thrilling news, the stunned man was initially speechless.
“Oh my god. That’s unreal!
“You have no idea how good it is.
"I get so many prank calls these days, so it’s hard to believe this is real.
“Wow! I’m honestly speechless.
“I just got home. Oh my god. I'm going to tell the missus now and let her know.
“I go for a lot of different games. This is the second time I've played Lucky Lotteries.
"I hope I get to hear your voice again someday. Thank you."

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.
