A Singleton man has had the ultimate interruption while starting work this morning - discovering he won a $100,000 prize in the latest Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.

The Hunter Region resident held the 1st Prize in Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw 10529, drawn Thursday 17 February 2022.

This is the second major lottery prize to land in the Hunter Region this week  after a pair of Newcastle construction workers also won $100,000 in a Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot draw.

This morning an official from The Lott reached out to the winner, who was completely oblivious to his life-enhancing win.

“I had no idea! I’m at work this morning and I haven’t had a chance to check my ticket,” he laughed.

“You’ve just made my day! I’ve been playing Lucky Lotteries for a little while now, so this is very exciting. I never expected to win a big prize.

“I’ll have to let my wife know straight away; she will probably be ready to retire!

“Wow! I’m feeling pretty good now. It will be hard to concentrate at work today though.

“Thank you so much!”

While the thrilling prize offers the potential for a new car or a holiday, the New South Wales player confessed he was too stunned to make any concrete plans at this stage.

“I have absolutely no idea on what I’ll spend the prize on, but I’m sure it will go to good use,” he said.

“We will have to sit down and have a think about it all!”

His winning entry of one random number was purchased online at thelott.com – the official home of Australia’s lotteries.

The Lucky Lotteries Mega Jackpot prize is now $7.25 million for draw 1561, while the Lucky Lotteries Super Jackpot prize is now $7.66 million for draw 10530.
