Old and New Numbers Land $1m Monday & Wednesday Lotto Prize
Four Australian players each won $1 million in the November 15 Monday & Wednesday Lotto draw. One had been using the same numbers for over 20 years, another didn’t even like her selection.
One of the winners came from Peakhurst in New South Wales. He was at a golf course when receiving a surprising call. It was from the lottery company informing him of his $1 million Monday & Wednesday Lotto win.
“You’re joking! I was not expecting this!” was his immediate response. “I was already having a bad game, and I know I wouldn’t have been able to concentrate after this news,” he joked.
Hell of a year
The Monday & Wednesday Lotto win comes after what he describes as a “hell of a year between my wife and myself.”
For over 20 years the winning player has been playing the lottery and using the same numbers.. His previous biggest win was $600 but it’s won him $1 million. The lucky player said he was too stunned to think about how to spend his winnings but will help his children.
Another of the $1 million Monday & Wednesday Lotto winners was a woman from Wantirna in Melbourne, Victoria who was on holiday in North Queensland when receiving news of her win.
Oh my god!
Her daughter must have wondered why mum was suddenly shouting “Oh my god! Oh my god!” down the phone. “Oh, don’t you bring the best news to people!” added the Monday & Wednesday Lotto winner.
The win came as a surprise to her as she had little confidence in the numbers she had for the November 15 draw. Unlike the other winner, her selection had not been selected by herself. Now her opinion has certainly changed, describing them as “my lucky numbers.”
Having just started her holiday, she hadn’t had the chance to check the results. Now her aim is to share the $1 million with her family which has been “a long-standing dream of mine.” A “big bash” will now be held to celebrate her success.
