A Mylor man had to check his heart was still beating after discovering he won $200,000 in today’s Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw.

The South Australian winner held the 1st Prize winning entry in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1515, drawn Monday 18 January 2021.

As well as winning the 1st Prize, the overjoyed man also scored a consolation prize of $1,000, boosting his total windfall to $201,000.

Straight after the draw, an official from The Lott called the winner, who had just checked his online account and made the startling discovery.

“Oh my god! I just logged into my account and I can see a $200,000 win,” he laughed.

“Is it true? Tell me it’s true?

“My god! That’s amazing! That’s just beautiful news!

“I need to check my heart is still beating!

“Bloody hell, you’re an angel! God, are you sure I am not dreaming?

“This is an incredible surprise. It’s going to be a while until I stop smiling!

“Thank you so much. You’re just beautiful! This is the best call I’ve ever received.”

When asked how he planned to enjoy his prize, the stoked bloke didn’t hesitate.

“Well, I would love to get myself a four-wheel drive,” he said.

“I have wanted to get a new car for a while.

“I would like to go on a few holidays too. It certainly will come in handy.”
