The Queensland player won the guaranteed 1st Prize of $200,000 in Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot draw 1438, drawn Thursday 22 August 2019.

Confirming his win with a Golden Casket official this afternoon, the thrilled man revealed how he discovered his good fortune.

“I just checked my ticket online and nearly had a heart attack!” he laughed.

“So this is real? I have won $200,000?

“I’m completely over-the-moon! It’s absolutely amazing! I’ve never won anything like this before!”

When asked how he planned to enjoy his Lucky Lotteries windfall, the happy man declared he was looking forward to being mortgage free.

“It will go straight towards paying off the mortgage!” he exclaimed.

“Paying it off will mean my wife will be able to retire so she is thrilled!”

The happy man confessed he had his eye on the $94 million Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot jackpot prize.

“Even though I won in this draw, I bought more tickets because I’m hoping to win the $94 million!” he laughed.

“Maybe we’ll be chatting again soon!”

The overjoyed man also confesed he had already planned his celebratory evening.

“Unfortunately I have to head back to work now but I’ve already called the wife and told her we are going out to dinner tonight to celebrate,” he said.

“I told her ‘Don’t make any plans for dinner tonight – we’re going out!’.”

The thrilled winner, who wishes to remain anonymous, purchased his entry of one random number online at thelott.com – Australia’s offical lotteries.

The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $94.12 million for draw 1439 while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot is now $3.36 million for draw 10307.
